Comprehensive review of advances in the field of chalcogenide glass microresonators
Soumya Suresh, Sheenu Thomas
Abstract
Abstract Chalcogenide glasses (ChGs) are technologically superior materials, and their properties underpin the demands of whispering gallery mode–based integrated photonic devices. The prime focus of this review is to showcase the recent advances in the field of ChG high Q cavities. The review also covers the theoretical research aspects and brief on the research challenges and limitations involved in the topic.
