Highly tunable low-threshold optical parametric oscillation in radially poled whispering gallery resonators.
Whispering-gallery resonators (WGR's), based on total internal reflection, possess high quality factors in a broad spectral range. Thus, nonlinear-optical processes in such cavities are ideally suited for the generation of broadband or tunable electromagnetic radiation. Experimentally and theoretically, we investigate the tunability of optical parametric oscillation in a radially structured WGR...
متن کاملA proposal for highly tunable optical parametric oscillation in silicon micro-resonators.
We propose a novel scheme for continuous-wave pumped optical parametric oscillation (OPO) inside silicon micro-resonators. The proposed scheme not only requires a relative low lasing threshold, but also exhibits extremely broad tunability extending from the telecom band to mid infrared.
متن کاملParametric studies of whispering-gallery mode resonators [5593-97]
This report characterizes the whispering-gallery mode (WGM) resonators with the design of waveguide and microdisk coupling microstructure. In order to understand and optimize the design, studies over a broad range of resonator configuration parameters including the microdisk size, the gap separating the microdisk and waveguide, and the waveguide width are numerically conducted. The finite eleme...
متن کاملOn optical forces in spherical whispering gallery mode resonators.
In this paper we discuss the force exerted by the field of an optical cavity on a polarizable dipole. We show that the modification of the cavity modes due to interaction with the dipole significantly alters the properties of the force. In particular, all components of the force are found to be non-conservative, and cannot, therefore, be derived from a potential energy. We also suggest a simple...
متن کاملOptical rogue waves in whispering-gallery-mode resonators
We report a theoretical study showing that rogue waves can emerge in whispering-gallery-mode resonators as the result of the chaotic interplay between Kerr nonlinearity and anomalous group-velocity dispersion. The nonlinear dynamics of the propagation of light in a whispering-gallery-mode resonator is investigated using the Lugiato-Lefever equation, and we give evidence of a range of parameters...
