Size Effect in Waveguide Coupled Whispering Gallery Mode Disk Resonators
We investigate the bound and evanescent fields of the optical whispering gallery modes which are supported by a toroid microcavity and which may be used for a wide range of applications. Results of simulations using finite-difference time domain solutions of Maxwell’s equations are compared with semi-analytical solutions based on coupled mode theory. Key parameters such as resonance frequencies...
متن کاملTuning of Elliptic Whispering-Gallery-Mode Microdisk Waveguide Filters
Highsemiconductor microdisk resonators laterally coupled to optical waveguides serve as compact and robust components in wavelength-division-multiplexing systems. We present an efficient algorithm for the two-dimensional design of wavelength-selective filters based on waveguide-coupled whispering-gallery-mode (WGM) microresonators of arbitrary cross-sectional shape. A full-wave integral equatio...
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 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 ...
