Tunable resonant optical microcavities by self-assembled templating.
Micrometer-scale optical cavities are produced by a combination of template sphere self-assembly and electrochemical growth. Transmission measurements of the tunable microcavities show sharp resonant modes with Q factors of >300 and 25-fold local enhancement of light intensity. The presence of transverse optical modes confirms the lateral confinement of photons. Calculations show that submicrom...
متن کاملTheoretical analyses of resonant frequency shift in anomalous dispersion enhanced resonant optical gyroscopes
Rigorous expressions of resonant frequency shift (RFS) in anomalous dispersion enhanced resonant optical gyroscopes (ADEROGs) are deduced without making approximation, which provides a precise theoretical guidance to achieve ultra-sensitive ADEROGs. A refractive index related modification factor is introduced when considering special theory of relativity (STR). We demonstrate that the RFS will ...
متن کاملSagnac Effect in Resonant Microcavities
The Sagnac effect is the phase difference between two counter-propagating laser beams in the same ring resonator due to rotation, originally introduced by Sagnac in 1913[1]. It has become the basis for the operation of the optical gyroscopes such as ring laser gyroscopes and fiber optic gyroscopes after the invention of lasers and optical fibers in 1970’s [2, 3, 4, 5] because the phase and freq...
متن کاملEfficient Design of Coupled Microcavities at Optical Frequencies
Simple and efficient approaches for filter design at optical frequencies using a large number of coupled microcavities are proposed. The design problem is formulated as an optimization problem with a unique global solution. Various efficient filter designs are obtained at both the drop and through ports. Our approaches are illustrated through a number of examples.
متن کاملEnergy Transfer to Optical Microcavities With Waveguides
Micro/nanoscale radiation energy transfer is investigated in optical microcavity and waveguide coupling structures working on whispering-gallery mode optical resonances. The finite element method is employed for solving the Helmholtz equations that govern the energy transfer and time-harmonics electromagnetic (EM) wave propagation. The maximum element size concept is introduced for the numerica...
