Abstract

We present an approach to translate and reconfigure SNAP microresonators (SMRs) introduced along a thin-walled hollow silica microcapillary fiber (MCF). First, we demonstrate formation and translation of a train of multiple SMRs induced by a periodic sequence of droplets inside an MCF controlled by air pressure. Next, we reconfigure a permanent SMR introduced at the MCF by a sequence of droplet-induced SMRs controllably translated along the MCF. We believe that the developed approach can become a promising technology for fabrication of reconfigurable low-loss resonant photonic microdevices for optical signal processing applications.
