Discovery of Parabolic Microresonators Produced via Fiber Tapering
arXiv:1809.05506 · doi:10.1364/OL.43.004977
Abstract
We demonstrate a new method for creation of surface nanoscale axial photonics (SNAP) microresonators with harmonic profiles via fiber tapering in a laser-heated microfurnace. The simple procedure makes microresonators that support hundreds of axial modes with good spacing uniformity, yielding a promising prospective method for fabricating miniature frequency comb generators and dispersionless delay lines.
