We demonstrate optical modes in InGaAs/GaAs microtubes functioning as ring resonators. These microtubes, fabricated using lithography and self-rolling bilayers, show sharp optical modes matching theoretical predictions.

Area of Science:

  • Optoelectronics
  • Materials Science
  • Nanotechnology

Background:

  • Optical ring resonators are crucial for integrated photonics.
  • Fabricating complex microstructures with precise optical properties remains challenging.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To demonstrate optical modes in InGaAs/GaAs microtubes.
  • To investigate their potential as optical ring resonators.

Main Methods:

  • Fabrication of self-supporting microtubes using optical lithography and wet-etching.
  • Utilizing the self-rolling mechanism of strained bilayers for microtube formation.
  • Probing optical modes via photoluminescence of embedded InAs quantum dots.

Main Results:

  • Successfully fabricated InGaAs/GaAs microtubes.
