On 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...
متن کاملCharacterization of Optical Microcavity Whispering-gallery-mode Resonators
In the past decade, optical microcavity whispering-gallery mode (WGM) resonators have received increasing attention for applications in optical communications and nanotechnology. In this paper, the theory for describing radiation transfer and heat transfer in the micro/nanoscale devices is presented first. Then the characteristics of waveguide-microdisk coupling WGM miniature resonators are num...
متن کاملNonlinear Frequency Conversion in a Crystalline Whispering-gallery Mode Disk
We are developing high quality factor whisperinggallery mode resonator (WGMR) disks for use in quantum information experiments. Our polished lithium niobate disks achieved a quality factors of Q > 10. We observed the generation of λ = 532 nm through Type-I, noncritically phase matched second harmonic generation in our whispering-gallery mode resonator disk. Unexpectedly, we observed this second...
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...
