Ultra-High-Q Optical Microcavities

by Chang-Ling Zou, Qi-Huang Gong, Yun-Feng Xiao

Confinement and manipulation of photons using microcavities have triggered intense research interest in both basic and applied physics for more than a decade. Prominent examples are whispering gallery microcavities which confine photons by means of continuous total internal reflection along a curved and smooth surface. The long photon lifetime, strong field confinement, and in-plane emission characteristics make them promising candidates for enhancing...
