In this work, we report optomechanical coupling, resolved sidebands and phonon lasing in a solid-core microbottle resonator fabricated on a single mode optical fiber. Mechanical modes with quality factors (Q_m) as high as 1.57*10^4 and…
Similar to microspheres, thin-walled microbubble resonators support whispering gallery modes (WGMs) that combine ultrahigh Q-factors and small effective mode volumes. In contrast, their hollow nature enables enhanced interactions with…

Typical microresonators exhibit a large frequency spacing between resonances and a limited tunability. This impedes their use in a large class of applications which require a resonance of the microcavity to coincide with a predetermined…
