We propose a new class of resonant electromagnetic structures, and study their response to free-space illumination. The structures consist of partial cylindrical shells that have cloaking material properties proposed by Pendry et al. These…
GaN-based resonators supporting whispering gallery modes are suggested as a promising approach for fabrication of efficient nanophotonic applications. A modification of excitonic emission due to coupling with cavity modes is observed…
We demonstrate the excitation and detection of whispering gallery modes in optical microresonators using a "point-and-play", fiber-based, optical nano-antenna. The coupling mechanism is based on cavity-enhanced Rayleigh scattering.…
We show that when a microsphere is illuminated by an evanescent wave, the optical forces on- and off- whispering gallery mode (WGM) resonance can differ by several orders of magnitude. Such size selective force allows one to selectively…
Whispering-gallery microcavity laser possesses ultralow threshold, whereas convenient free-space optical excitation and collection suffer from low efficiencies due to its rotational symmetry. Here we analytically study a three-dimensional…

We demonstrate that yttrium iron garnet microspheres support optical whispering gallery modes similar to those in non-magnetic dielectric materials. The direction of the ferromagnetic moment tunes both the resonant frequency via the Voigt…
Whispering gallery mode (WGM) microtoroid resonators are one of the most sensitive biochemical sensors in existence, capable of detecting single molecules. The main barrier for translating these devices out of the laboratory is that light…
In the context of engineered quantum systems, there is a demand for superconducting tunable devices able to operate with high Q-factors at power levels equivalent to only a few photons. In this work, we developed a 3D microwave reentrant…
We report an approach to achieve deeply sub-diffractive mode volumes in all-dielectric ring resonators. Specifically, we leverage simultaneous usage of nanostructured subwavelength metamaterial waveguides and excitation of standing wave…
A phononic crystal formed in a suspended membrane provides full confinement of hypersonic waves and thus realizes a range of chip-scale manipulations. In this letter, we demonstrate the mode-resolved real-space characterization of the…
Second order nonlinearities in whispering gallery mode resonators are highly investigated for their many applications such as wavelength converters, entangled photon sources and generation of frequency combs. In such systems, depending on…
Theory predicts that Coherent Synchrotron Radiation (CSR) in electron storage rings should appear in whispering gallery modes. In an idealized model these are resonances of the vacuum chamber that are characterized by their high frequencies…
We demonstrate that the surface second-harmonic generation can lead to the formation of nonlinear plasmonic whispering-gallery modes (WGMs) in microcavities made of metallic nanowires. Since these WGMs are excited by induced surface…
We demonstrate sum-frequency generation in a nonlinear whispering gallery mode resonator between a telecom wavelength and the Rb D2 line, achieved through natural phase matching. Due to the strong optical field confinement and ultra high Q…
Whispering gallery mode (WGM) microcavities strongly enhance nonlinear optical processes like optical frequency comb, Raman scattering and optomechanics, which nowadays enable cutting-edge applications in microwave synthesis, optical…
An analysis is provided of the degradation that arises in the quality factor of a whispering gallery mode when a circular or spherical dielectric cavity is deformed. The large quality factors of such resonators are important to their use in…
We perform numerical studies of the effect of sidewall imperfections on the resonant state broadening of the optical microdisk cavities for lasing applications. We demonstrate that even small edge roughness causes a drastic degradation of…
We present a theoretical investigation of a whispering gallery mode (WGM) resonator coupled to a Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) and show a bimodal coincidence transmission spectrum when the input state is an indistinguishable photon…
Squeezed vacuum states enable optical measurements below the quantum limit and hence are a valuable resource for applications in quantum metrology and also quantum communication. However, most available sources require high pump powers in…
