Abstract
A hybrid plasmonic whispering-gallery-mode (WGM) microbottle resonator (MBR) supporting hybridized surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) is demonstrated. A thin gold film was deposited from one side of the MBR and covers only half of the resonator surface with a meniscus cross-section shape and tapered edges. Composite SPPs Q-factor of up to 850 is achievable through efficient coupling from the dielectric part of the hybrid-MBR. Lorentzian fitting on the measured data revealed that these composite SPPs comprised of three overlapping resonances with Q-factor of up to 2500. It is also shown that the excitation strength of the individual resonances depends on the relative orientation between the excitation tapered optical fibre and the thin gold meniscus. FDTD modelling reproduced accurately the experimental spectral characteristics.
期刊介绍:
Innovations in optical fiber technology are revolutionizing world communications. Newly developed fiber amplifiers allow for direct transmission of high-speed signals over transcontinental distances without the need for electronic regeneration. Optical fibers find new applications in data processing. The impact of fiber materials, devices, and systems on communications in the coming decades will create an abundance of primary literature and the need for up-to-date reviews.
Optical Fiber Technology: Materials, Devices, and Systems is a new cutting-edge journal designed to fill a need in this rapidly evolving field for speedy publication of regular length papers. Both theoretical and experimental papers on fiber materials, devices, and system performance evaluation and measurements are eligible, with emphasis on practical applications.
