Optical coupling of fundamental whispering gallery modes in bi-spheres
L. I. Deych, C. Schmidt, A. Chipouline +2
What will happen if two identical microspheres, with fundamental whispering gallery modes excited in each of them, become optically coupled? Conventional wisdom based on coupled-mo…
Optical characterization of ultra-high diffraction efficiency gratings
A. Bunkowski, O. Burmeister, T. Clausnitzer +4
We report on the optical characterization of an ultra-high diffraction efficiency grating in 1st order Littrow configuration. The apparatus used was an optical cavity built from th…
Demonstration of 3-port grating phase relations
A. Bunkowski, O. Burmeister, K. Danzmann +1
We experimentally demonstrate the phase relations of 3-port gratings by investigating 3-port coupled Fabry-Perot cavities. Two different gratings which have the same 1st order diff…
Low-loss grating for coupling to a high-finesse cavity
A. Bunkowski, O. Burmeister, P. Beyersdorf +5
A concept for a low loss all-reflective cavity coupler is experimentally demonstrated at a wavelength of 1064 nm. A 1450 nm period dielectric reflection grating with a diffraction…
Observation of two-dimensional surface solitons in anisotropic waveguide arrays
A. Szameit, Y. V. Kartashov, F. Dreisow +4
We report on the experimental observation of two-dimensional surface waves localized at the edge or in the corner of femtosecond laser-written waveguide arrays in fused silica. Inc…
