Fiber taper coupling to chalcogenide microsphere modes

Christian Grillet, Shu Ning Bian, Eric C. Magi, and Benjamin J. Eggleton
We report the fabrication and optical characterization of microsphere in chalcogenide (AsSe). We show that high Q modes of a 9.2 [mu]m diameter chalcogenide glass can be efficiently excited via evanescent coupling using a silica tapered fiber. Loaded Q factors of more than 20 000 have been measured ... [Appl. Phys. Lett. 92, 171109 (2008)] published Wed Apr 30, 2008.
