High Q whispering gallery modes in GaAs/AlAs pillar microcavities.
We report the observation of whispering gallery modes (WGM) in high quality GaAs/AlAs pillar microcavities defined by electron-beam lithography and electron cyclotron resonance reactive ion etching. Photoluminescence experiments, conducted using InAs quantum dots as an internal probe, reveal a remarkably simple WGM spectrum, consisting of a single series of TE modes. For diameters ranging from ...
متن کاملStatic envelope patterns in composite resonances generated by level crossing in optical toroidal microcavities.
We study level crossing in the optical whispering-gallery (WG) modes by using toroidal microcavities. Experimentally, we image the stationary envelope patterns of the composite optical modes that arise when WG modes of different wavelengths coincide in frequency. Numerically, we calculate crossings of levels that correspond with the observed degenerate modes, where our method takes into account...
متن کاملEx-house 2D finite-element simulation of the whispering-gallery modes of axisymmetric electromagnetic resonators
It is described, explicitly, how a popular, commercially-available software package for solving partialdifferential-equations (PDEs), as based on the finite-element method (FEM), can be configured to calculate the frequencies and fields of the whispering-gallery (WG) modes of axisymmetric dielectric resonators. The approach is traceable; it exploits the PDE-solver’s ability to accept the defini...
متن کاملUltrahigh-Q toroidal microresonators for cavity quantum electrodynamics
We investigate the suitability of toroidal microcavities for strong-coupling cavity quantum electrodynamics sQEDd. Numerical modeling of the optical modes demonstrate a significant reduction of the modal volume with respect to the whispering gallery modes of dielectric spheres, while retaining the high-quality factors representative of spherical cavities. The extra degree of freedom of toroid m...
متن کاملDirectional single-mode emission from coupled whispering gallery resonators realized by using ZnS microbelts.
Ring microcavities were formed by wrapping ZnS microbelts, which act as the waveguide and gain region of the microcavities on the surface of optical fibers. The ring microcavities with the formation of whispering gallery modes have lasing threshold lower (Q-factor higher) than that of the ZnS microbelts. The excitation of TM modes could also be suppressed by the ring geometries of ZnS microbelt...
