Abstract

An in-fiber whispering gallery mode resonator fabricated by femtosecond laser micromaching is demonstrated. The cylinder resonator cavity is fabricated by scanning the D-fiber cladding with infrared femtosecond pulses along a cylindrical trace with radius of 25μm and height of 20μm. Quality factor on the order of 103 is achieved by smoothing the cavity surface with ultrasonic cleaner, which is mainly limited by the surface roughness of hundreds nanometers. Resonant characteristics and polarization dependence of the proposed resonator is also studied in detail. Our method takes a step forward to the integration of whispering gallery mode resonators.
