Whispering gallery mode microresonators: Fundamentals and applications
— Confinement of light into small volumes has become an essential requirement for photonic devices; examples of this trend are provided by optical fibers, integrated optical circuits, semiconductor lasers, and photonic crystals. Optical dielectric resonators supporting Whispering Gallery Modes (WGMs) represent another class of cavity devices with exceptional properties, like extremely small mod...
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 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 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 کاملUnified approach to mode splitting and scattering loss in high- Q whispering-gallery-mode microresonators
Current theoretical treatments of mode splitting and scattering loss resulting from subwavelength scatterers attached to the surface of high-quality-factor whispering-gallery-mode microresonators are not satisfactory. Different models proposed for distinct scatterer regimes cannot be reconciled. In addition, many experimental results are difficult to understand within the existing theoretical f...
