Controllable oscillatory lateral coupling in a waveguide-microdisk-resonator system

Abstract We report a theoretical and experimental study of coupling between a whispering-gallery-mode (WGM) microdisk resonator and a fiber taper which exchange energies at two distinct regions. We observe an oscillatory behavior in the coupling strength as a function of the distance between the two...
