High-quality-factor Bragg onion resonators with omnidirectional reflector cladding.

چکیده
We propose to approximate a spherically symmetric Bragg resonator in an onionlike geometry. We develop a transfer-matrix theory for calculation of the quality factors and analyze the effect of the onion stem on cavity Q factors. We find that it is possible to achieve significant inhibition of spontaneous emission in an onion resonator with omnidirectional cladding layers.

Modal analysis of Bragg onion resonators.
From analysis of the high Q modes in a Bragg onion resonator with an omnidirectional reflector cladding, we establish a close analogy between such a resonator and a spherical hollow cavity in perfect metal. We demonstrate that onion resonators are ideal for applications that require a large spontaneous-emission factor beta, such as thresholdless lasers and single-photon devices.
متن کاملMie scattering analysis of spherical Bragg "onion" resonators.
Combining the Mie scattering theory and a transfer matrix method, we investigate in detail the scattering of light by spherical Bragg "onion" resonators. We classify the resonator modes into two classes, the core modes that are confined by Bragg reflection, and the cladding modes that are confined by total internal reflection. We demonstrate that these two types of modes lead to significantly d...
متن کاملModification of spontaneous emission in Bragg onion resonators.
We formulated an analytical model and analyzed the modification of spontaneous emission in Bragg onion resonators. We consider both the case of a single light emitter and a uniformly distributed ensemble of light emitters within the resonator. We obtain an expression for the average radiation rate of the light emitters ensemble and discuss the modification of the average radiation rate as a fun...
متن کاملGraphene-based tunable plasmonic Bragg reflector with a broad bandwidth.
We propose and numerically analyze a plasmonic Bragg reflector formed in a graphene waveguide. The results show that the graphene plasmonic Bragg reflector can produce a broadband stopband that can be tuned over a wide wavelength range by a small change in the Fermi energy level of graphene. By introducing a defect into the Bragg reflector, we can achieve a Fabry-Perot-like microcavity with a q...
متن کاملDirect-write depressed cladding waveguide Bragg-gratings in ZBLAN glass
Strong waveguide Bragg-gratings (10 dB reflectivity) were fabricated by the directwrite technique in ZBLAN glass. Based on a depressed cladding, an array of 169 periodic and in phase modifications was placed inside the core.
