Journal ArticleDOI
Induced transparency and absorption in coupled whispering-gallery microresonators
TL;DR: In this paper, coupled fused-silica microspheres were used to investigate the effect of interference between coresonant whisperinggallery modes of the two spheres and the observed effects can enhance microresonator performance in various applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microsphere whispering-gallery-mode laser using HgTe quantum dots
TL;DR: In this article, a fused-silica microsphere that is coated with HgTe quantum dots (colloidal nanoparticles) is used to achieve ultralow-threshold continuous-wave lasing at room temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cavity-enhanced laser absorption spectroscopy using microresonator whispering-gallery modes
TL;DR: The experimental results of cavity-enhanced detection using such a microresonator are centimeter effective absorption pathlengths in a volume of only a few hundred microns cubed, in good agreement with theory.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Liquid crystal waveguides: new devices enabled by >1000 waves of optical phase control
TL;DR: In this article, a new electro-optic waveguide platform, which provides unprecedented voltage control over optical phase delays with very low loss (< 0.5 dB/cm) and rapid response time (sub millisecond), is presented.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Vescent Photonics Inc. and Jet Propulsion Lab jointly developed an innovative ultra-compact (volume < 10 cm 3 ), ultra-low power (<10 -3 Watt-hours per measurement and zero power consumption when not measuring) completely non-mechanical electro-optic Fourier transform spectrometers (EO-FT S) that will be suitable for a variety of remote-platform, in-situ measurements as mentioned in this paper.
