Pressure 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 کاملOn-chip nano-optomechanical whispering gallery resonators
This thesis work focuses on the design, fabrication and measurement of Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) nano-optomechanical disk resonators. These disks are both GHz frequency mechanical resonators, and high Q (> 10) optical whispering gallery mode resonators. By confining optical and mechanical energy on a sub-μm volume, they enable extremely large optomechanical coupling strengths (g0 >1 MHz). We pres...
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...
متن کاملAptasensors Based on Whispering Gallery Mode Resonators
In this paper, we review the literature on optical evanescent field sensing in resonant cavities where aptamers are used as biochemical receptors. The combined advantages of highly sensitive whispering gallery mode resonator (WGMR)-based transducers, and of the unique properties of aptamers make this approach extremely interesting in the medical field, where there is a particularly high need fo...
