Journal ArticleDOI
Micro-optical force sensor concept based on whispering gallery mode resonators.
TL;DR: A micro-optical force sensor concept based on the morphology-dependent shifts of optical modes of dielectric microspheres is investigated and a measurement sensitivity as high as dlambda/dF=7.664 nm/N was demonstrated with a 960 mum hollow PMMA sphere.
Journal ArticleDOI
Scaling parameters for underexpanded supersonic jets
TL;DR: In this paper, a set of expressions were developed for afterexpansion equivalent jet exit diameter, velocity, temperature, and density to allow for a better collapse of jet spreading and centerline decay rates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pressure tuning of whispering gallery mode resonators
Tindaro Ioppolo,M. Volkan Ötügen +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of hydrostatic pressure on solid and hollow microsphere optical resonators was investigated and the feasibility of a micro-optical pressure sensor based on whispering gallery modes (WGMs) and quantifying the deleterious effect of environmental pressure changes on other WGM-based sensors was explored.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tuning of whispering gallery modes of spherical resonators using an external electric field
TL;DR: Analytical expressions for the WGM shift due to electrostriction for solid and thin-walled hollow microspheres are developed and indicates that detection of electric fields as small as ~500V/m may be possible using water filled, hollow solid polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) microsphere.
Journal ArticleDOI
Whispering gallery modes of microspheres in the presence of a changing surrounding medium: A new ray-tracing analysis and sensor experiment
TL;DR: A simple plane wave, ray tracing approach was used to derive approximate equations for the dielectric microsphere whispering gallery mode (WGM) resonant wavenumber and quality factor, as dependent on the surrounding medium's refractive index.
