This review article discusses progress in surface plasmon resonance (SPR) of two-
dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) chip-based nanostructure array patterns …

Whispering‐gallery modes (WGM) on a spherical surface were first described by Lord
Rayleigh at the beginning of the last century, but only after the invention of laser did they …

Confinement of light into small volumes has become an essential requirement for photonic
devices; examples of this trend are provided by optical fibers, integrated optical circuits …

In this review paper some recent advances on optical fiber sensors are reported. In
particular, fiber Bragg grating (FBG), long period gratings (LPGs), evanescent field and …

Chalcogenide glasses (ChGs) are technologically superior materials, and their properties
underpin the demands of whispering gallery mode–based integrated photonic devices. The …

A dedicated 3D numerical model based on coupled mode theory and solving the rate
equations has been developed to analyse, design and optimize an optical amplifier …

In this paper, we demonstrate Er 3+ doped tellurite single and multi-mode microlasers in 1.5
μm–1.6 μm wavelength range fabricated via the plasma torch method. It is a simple and cost …

A mid-IR amplifier consisting of a tapered chalcogenide fiber coupled to an Er 3+-doped
chalcogenide microsphere has been optimized via a particle swarm optimization (PSO) …

Whispering gallery modes (WGMs) are frequently observed in the emission spectrum of a
fluorophore coupled to a dielectric microsphere. If the fluorophore is excited strongly enough …

In this article the basic information about the whispering gallery modes (WGM) concerning
questions of mathematical description, properties of whispering gallery resonators (WGR) …
