Coupled-mode induced transparency in a bottle whispering-gallery-mode resonator

Yue Wang, Kun Zhang, Song Zhou +3 more

Whispering-gallery-mode (WGM) optical resonators are ideal systems for achieving electromagnetically induced transparency-like phenomenon. Here, we experimentally demonstrate that one or more transparent windows can be achieved with coupled-mode induced transparency (CMIT) in a single bottle WGM resonator due to the bottle's dense mode spectra and tunable resonant frequencies. This device offers an approach for multi-channel all-optical switching devices and sensitivity-enhanced WGM-based sensors.

High Q-factor sapphire whispering gallery mode microwave resonator at single photon energies and millikelvin temperatures

Daniel Lloyd Creedon, Yarema Reshitnyk, Warrick G. Farr +3 more

The microwave properties of a crystalline sapphire dielectric whispering gallery mode resonator have been measured at very low excitation strength (E/ℏω≈1) and low temperatures (T≈30 mK). The measurements were sensitive enough to observe saturation due to a highly detuned electron spin resonance, which limited the loss tangent of the material to about 2×10−8 measured at 13.868 and 13.259 GHz. Small power dependent frequency shifts were also measured which correspond to an added magnetic susceptibility of order 10−9. This work shows that quantum limited microwave resonators with Q-factors >108 are possible with the implementation of a sapphire whispering gallery mode system.
