Reconfigurable symmetry-broken laser in a symmetric microcavity

The directional lasing emission in whispering gallery microcavities typically resorts to breaking the structure symmetry. Here the authors demonstrate a reconfigurable symmetry-broken microlaser in a symmetric ultrahigh-Q whispering gallery microcavity, in which a chirality of lasing fields is empow...

Sumario:The directional lasing emission in whispering gallery microcavities typically resorts to breaking the structure symmetry. Here the authors demonstrate a reconfigurable symmetry-broken microlaser in a symmetric ultrahigh-Q whispering gallery microcavity, in which a chirality of lasing fields is empowered spontaneously by nonlinear effects.
