Abstract

Abstract:

According to the focusing property of the photonic nanojet, the coupling characteristics for the chain of microcavities have been studied. Low-loss light propagation in the chain of microcavities is proposed. The influence of different wavelengths on the intensity of the photonic nanojet and the location of the focal spot are given. Intensity distribution and transmission characteristics for the chain of coupled spherical microcavities are analysed. Simulation results and theoretical analysis show that the chain of spherical microcavities has a highly focused beam and low-loss characteristics because of the focusing effect and backscattering enhancement of the photonic nanojet. A low-loss waveguide can be designed by using these properties of the chain of spherical microcavities. Sub-wavelength focusing of the beam, high optical throughput, and broad spectral transmission properties make the chains of microspheres able to be used in a variety of biomedical applications including minimally invasive and ultraprecise laser surgery.
