Confinement and manipulation of photons using microcavities have triggered intense research interest in both basic and applied physics for more than a decade. Prominent examples are whispering gallery microcavities which confine photons by means of continuous total internal reflection along a curved and smooth surface. The long photon lifetime, strong field confinement, and in-plane emission characteristics make them promising candidates for enhancing light-matter interactions on a chip. In this book, we will introduce different ultra-high-Q whispering gallery microcavities, and focus on their applications in enhancing light-matter interaction, such as ultralow-threshold microlasing, highly sensitive optical biosensing, nonlinear optics, cavity quantum electrodynamics and cavity optomechanics.Key Features: ○This book focuses on ultra-high-Q whispering gallery microcavities, and comprehensively introduces the fundamental physics and various applications○Over the past few years, there are many new progresses and new topics in whispering gallery microcavity, which are not covered by previous books, but will be included in this book○Authors of this book are devoted themselves to the related investigation for many years and published various papers in the area
