Experiments with Mobius strip microlasers fabricated by direct laser writing show that Mobius strip cavity cannot sustain whispering gallery modes (WGM) unlike conventional ring or disk resonators. Comparison between experiments and 3D finite difference time domain (FDTD) simulations reveals that resonances are localized on periodic geodesics.
We report on experiments with Mobius strip microlasers, which were fabricated with high optical quality by direct laser writing. A Mobius strip, i.e., a band with a half twist, exhibits the fascinating property that it has a single nonorientable surface and a single boundary. We provide evidence that, in contrast to conventional ring or disk resonators, a Mobius strip cavity cannot sustain whispering gallery modes (WGM). Comparison between experiments and 3D finite difference time domain (FDTD) simulations reveals that the resonances are localized on periodic geodesics.
