A Fabry-Perot optical microcavity based on liquid crystal infiltration integrated in a waveguide has been designed and fabricated. Careful optimization of the cavity geometry allows designing a device with a simulated resonance peak transmission of 95% with a linewidth of about 1.7 nm. Based on this simulation, a first prototype has been fabricated and tested.

Abstract

A Fabry-Perot optical microcavity based on liquid crystal infiltration integrated in a waveguide has been designed and fabricated. Careful optimization of the cavity geometry allows designing a device with a simulated resonance peak transmission of 95% with a linewidth of about 1.7 nm. Based on this simulation, a first prototype has been fabricated and tested.
