Multimode resonances in square-shaped optical microcavities

Abstract

Square-shaped two-dimensional optical microcavities (μ-cavities) were investigated for possible applications as filters for dense wavelength-division multiplexing. Multimode cavity resonances were observed in the elastic scattering of 200μm square-shaped μ-cavities in fused silica. Based on a two-dimensional k-space representation, we accounted for the multimode spectrum by different normal modes with rays confined by total internal reflection. The cavity-mode trajectories need not be closed after each round trip. Single-mode spectra are expected from smaller square-shaped μ-cavities.
