Frequency stability of a dual-mode whispering gallery mode optical reference cavity.
We report an investigation of laser frequency stabilization using a whispering gallery mode resonator that is temperature stabilized by a dual-mode technique. This dual-mode technique has yielded mode volume temperature instabilities at the nK level, suggesting that high frequency stability may also be reached. Here, we experimentally and theoretically investigate the dynamics of such a system ...
متن کاملWhispering Gallery Mode Thermometry
This paper presents a state-of-the-art whispering gallery mode (WGM) thermometer system, which could replace platinum resistance thermometers currently used in many industrial applications, thus overcoming some of their well-known limitations and their potential for providing lower measurement uncertainty. The temperature-sensing element is a sapphire-crystal-based whispering gallery mode reson...
متن کاملCavity Optomechanics and Optical Frequency Comb Generation with Silica Whispering-Gallery-Mode Microresonators
In this thesis, I report on the exploration of non-linear optical phenomena in silica whispering gallery mode (WGM) microcavities. In particular, optomechanical interactions, and the generation of optical frequency combs due to the Kerr non-linearity of silica are investigated. Radiation pressure couples the optical field stored in a microcavity to mechanical degrees of freedom of its boundary....
متن کاملWhispering Gallery Mode Biosensor
sensor which uses whispering gallery modes (WGMs) in dielectric microspheres for biomolecular detection. The WGMs are excited by evanescent coupling to an etch-eroded single mode optical fiber. WGM resonance positions are detected as Lorentzian dips in the intensity of the fiber-transmitted light. The polarization of molecules interacting with the evanescent field of the WGM on the microsphere ...
متن کاملWhispering-gallery mode microdisk lasers
A new microlaser design based on the high-reflectivity whispering-gallery modes around the edge of a thin semiconductor microdisk is described and initial experimental results are presented. Optical confinement within the thin disk plane results in a microresonator with potential for single-mode, ultralow threshold lasers. Initial experiments use selective etching techniques in the InP/InGaAsP ...
