These whispering gallery modes can be used in resonant cavity enhanced applications of optoelectronic devices such as, filters, detector, modulators and switches. Feasibility of silicon microsphere device at Mid-IR frequencies is studied. The high quality factor morphology dependent resonances have repetitive channel separations of 0.124 mu m in silicon microspheres with a radius of 50 mu m at wavelengths between 9.8 mu m and 10.6 mu m.pdfElectrical and electronic engineeringOpticsSilicon microspheres for mid infrared photonicsConference proceeding1996-756Xhttps://doi.org/10.1117/12.701518246028000009N/ANOIR00863
