Nonlinear mode coupling in whispering-gallery-mode resonators
Whispering-gallery modes (WGMs) have been a source of fascination to physicists since at least the work of Lord Rayleigh in 1910 [1], when he explained the phenomenon that a whisper in one end of the gallery of St. Paul’s Cathedral could be heard at the other end. This phenomenon has practical implications as well, since WGMs in resonators with cylindrical or spherical symmetry can have very hi...
متن کاملNonlinear Optics and Crystalline Whispering Gallery Mode resonators
We report on our recent results concerning fabrication of high-Q whispering gallery mode (WGM) crystalline resonators, and discuss some possible applications of lithium niobate WGM resonators in nonlinear optics and photonics. In particular, we demonstrate experimentally a tunable third-order optical filter fabricated from the three metalized resonators; and report observation of parametric fre...
متن کاملPressure tuning of whispering gallery mode resonators
The effect of hydrostatic pressure on solid and hollow microsphere optical resonators was investigated. The primary goal was to explore the feasibility of a micro-optical pressure sensor based on whispering gallery modes (WGMs) and to quantify the deleterious effect of environmental pressure changes on other WGM-based sensors. Expressions were developed for WGM shifts due to changes in hydrosta...
متن کاملWhispering-Gallery Mode Resonators for Detecting Cancer
Optical resonators are sensors well known for their high sensitivity and fast response time. These sensors have a wide range of applications, including in the biomedical fields, and cancer detection is one such promising application. Sensor diagnosis currently has many limitations, such as being expensive, highly invasive, and time-consuming. New developments are welcomed to overcome these limi...
متن کاملWhispering Gallery Mode Resonators as Biosensors
The previous chapter introduces biosensor technologies according to the physical nature of their signal transduction processes. Optical biosensors are just one category that includes a wide array of novel devices. The present work deals with a technology based on whispering gallery mode (WGM) optical resonators [60, 61]. Understanding how they are fabricated and used is important for appreciati...
