Degenerate Perturbation Theory Describing the Mixing of Orbital Angular Momentum Modes in Fabry-Pérot Cavity Resonators

David H. Foster, Andrew K. Cook, Jens U. Nöckel

We present an analytic perturbation theory which extends the paraxial approximation for a common cylindrically symmetric stable optical resonator and incorporates the differential,…

Bragg-induced orbital angular-momentum mixing in paraxial high-finesse cavities

David H. Foster, Jens U. Noeckel

Numerical calculation of vector electromagnetic modes of plano-concave microcavities reveals that the polarization-dependent reflectivity of a flat Bragg mirror can lead to unexpec…

Spatial and polarization structure in micro-dome resonators: effects of a Bragg mirror

David H. Foster, Jens U. Noeckel

Micro-domes based on a combination of metallic and dielectric multilayer mirrors are studied using a fully vectorial numerical basis-expansion method that accurately accounts for t…

Methods for 3-D vector microcavity problems involving a planar dielectric mirror

David H. Foster, Jens U. Nockel

We develop and demonstrate two numerical methods for solving the class of open cavity problems which involve a curved, cylindrically symmetric conducting mirror facing a planar die…

Directional Tunneling Escape from Nearly Spherical Optical Resonators

Scott Lacey, Hailin Wang, David H. Foster +1

We report the surprising observation of directional tunneling escape from nearly spherical fused-silica optical resonators, in which most of the phase space is filled with nonchaot…
