The spectral properties of a single-mode active microring resonator are investigated in the frame of the extended transfer matrix formalism. Spontaneous emission, looked upon as the driving source of the radiation, is described in a semi-classical way in the spectral domain. The internal and emitted fields are filtered into the resonance modes of the whole structure; the spectral density of power is described by the generalized transfer function, which contains all essential mechanisms at work in a laser oscillator: gain, losses and sources. The active zone is saturated through Amplified Spontaneous Emission, integrated over its whole spectral range. Continuously valid across threshold, the method enables one to derive in a simple way the main steady-state properties of the laser oscillation, with the pumping rate as the only external parameter. In this approach, the optical properties of the active medium (the gain, the source and the refractive index) are supposed to be uniquely determined by the steady-state value of the carrier density, obtained within the framework of the rate equation formalism and assumed uniform along the active zone.

Surface tension induced whispering gallery mode (WGM) micro-resonators can be made in glass with very high quality factor Q. In fact, low losses amorphous glassy dielectrics can be easily shaped in high-surface-quality spheroids by thermal reflow. Since the pioneering works on fused silica microspheres showing several orders of magnitude higher Qs compared to previous findings, a large number of studies have been performed in the last years on glass based microresonators. Main results include frequency conversion through non-linear effects and micro-lasers, filtering and optical switching, RF photonics and sensing. Besides spheres, alternatives shapes like micro-bottles and micro-bubbles have been implemented to improve the resonator performances depending on the application. Other glasses rather than silica have been considered in order to enhance properties like transparency windows and non-linear effects. This presentation will review the main results we obtained on micro-laser sources in erbium doped microcavities, parametric conversion in silica microspheres, and stimulated Brillouin scattering in silica microbubbles. Potentials of coated silica microspheres implemented to add the functionalities of the coating material will be also presented.

Micro spherical resonators have attracted significant attention in recent years due to their interesting optical properties and the range of applications for which they can be used. Most of the publications dedicated to micro spherical Laser are devoted to lasing effects in different materials where the spectral properties of the emission depends on (i) the choice of dopant (e.g. Er3+, Yb3+, Tm3+) and (ii) the host matrix (e.g. silica, fluoride, phosphate or telluride glass) in which the dopant is embedded. Yet, the dynamics of theses Lasers are still to be studied. This paper shows experimental results on the amplitude fluctuations of a Whispering Gallery Mode Laser, also known as relative intensity noise (RIN). It gives information about the dynamics inside the cavity, such as photon lifetime, effective pumping rate and noise sources. We use as active medium Er3+ doped fluoride ZBLALiP glass and also industrial IOG-1 Yb3+- Er3+ co-doped phosphate glass. Theses glasses are well adapted to the development of micro spherical Laser operating in the infrared region, in particular with emission wavelengths falling respectively in the C-band and C+L band. We have observed that the RIN can provide insurance about the emission of the Laser. Moreover, we have shown that a single-mode emission comes with the presence of multiple harmonics of the relaxation frequency, which is the signature of a Laser with high noise levels. In this particular case, the second and higher orders of intensity fluctuations cannot be neglected any longer in the small-signal analysis.

We study both theoretically and experimentally the dispersive properties of single whispering gallery mode resonators. We present a simple experimental protocol which allows us to obtain in detail its coupling regime and thus their dispersive properties. We demonstrate a compact optical amplifier with a gain up to 20dB in an Erbium doped fluoride microsphere of 135μm in diameter coupled via a tapered fiber. The model is also applied to analyze the dynamic behavior of the modal coupling between two degenerate resonances of the same cavity. In particular, this can be used to describe the coupling of counterpropagating whispering gallery modes (WGM) by Rayleigh scattering. The theory is successfully compared to experiments carried out in silica microspheres

We present ringing phenomenon in coupled resonators and in high-Q amplifying whispering gallery mode resonators. This effect can be used to measure the gain and the group delay of optical integrated delay lines.
