Cavity Optofluidics: Raman Laser Made of a Fiber Coupled nano-Liter Droplet
Shai Maayani, Tal Carmon
We fabricate a fiber coupled ultrahigh-Q resonator from a μdroplet per se; and experimentally measure stimulated Raman emission showing itself at a 160μW threshold. We observe Rama…
Fluidic vortices generated from optical vortices in a microdroplet cavity
Daniel Bar-David, Shai Maayani, Leoplodo L. Martin +1
We harness the momentum of light resonating inside a micro-droplet cavity, to experimentally generate micro-flows within the envelope of the drop. We 3D map these optically induced…
Water Fibers
Mark L. Douvidzon, Shai Maayani, Leopoldo L. Martin +1
Fibers constitute the backbone of modern communication and are used in laser surgeries; fibers also genarate coherent X-ray, guided-sound and supercontinuum. In contrast, fibers fo…
Ripplon Laser
Samuel Kaminski, Leopoldo L. Martin, Shai Maayani +1
Energy exchange between light and sound was first suggested by Brillouin in 1922. After Townes established the phonon maser theory, coherent generation of intense hypersonic waves…
Water-Walled Microfluidics Makes an Ultimate Optical Finesse
Shai Maayani, Leopoldo L. Martin, Tal Carmon
Liquids serve microcavity research ever since Ashkins studies on optical resonances in levitating droplets to recent optofluidic resonators. Droplets can provide optical quality fa…
