Abstract

We report a novel optical microcavity with micro-nano size based on the Fabry-Perot microcavity, which is a roof structure with two top reflectors that are symmetrical structure and proper inclined angle. The special design of the top reflectors increases the one-period-length for the mode light ray inside the microcavity and confines light in a smaller area effectively. The resonance principle of the microcavity is analyzed and the properties are numerically studied by the finite element method (FEM). Compared with the Fabry-Perot microcavity, the result show that the proposed microcavity has outstanding advantages such as high quality factor, narrow spectrum, and small effective module volume, which has a great potential in photonic devices and optoelectronic devices.
