Examples described herein relate to an optical switching device wherein a racetrack resonant structure is positioned to determine a frequency passband by coupling. In some examples, a first waveguide receives an input light signal. A second waveguide is positioned to enable the input light signal to couple between the first waveguide and the second waveguide through a first coupling gap. The racetrack resonant structure is positioned adjacent to the first coupling gap to enable the input light signal to couple between one of the first waveguide and the second waveguide and the racetrack resonant structure through a second coupling gap. Thus, the racetrack resonant structure is to determine the frequency passband such that a first portion of the input light signal that coincides with the frequency passband is output by the first waveguide, and a second portion of the input light signal that does not coincide with the frequency passband is output by the second waveguide.
