Figures & Tables

Fig. 1. (a) Schematic of a z-invariant cylindrical microcavity with a nanoparticle (blue sector) adsorbed on its surface. a and b denote the complex amplitude coefficients of the two counterpropagating APMs matched to the resonant mode. (b) Scattering coefficients ρ and τ characterizing the reflection and transmission of the APM at the nanoparticle.

Fig. 2. (a) Frequency shift δ [relative to the unperturbed TM1,42 WGM with resonance frequency Re(νc,0)=1.969550×1014  Hz] and (b) Q-factor of S-mode (blue) and AS-mode (red) as a function of nanoparticle size D. Inset in (b) shows 1/Qprop (dotted curves) and 1/Qscat (dashed–dot curves). (c)–(e) arg(τ±ρ), |τ±ρ|, and neff of the resonant modes solved for different D (the solid and dashed curves corresponding to left and right axes, respectively, the blue and red curves corresponding to the S-mode and the AS-mode, respectively). (f) Δw (characterizing the resolvability of mode splitting) for different D. The inset shows details for small particle sizes. In (a), (b), and (f), the solid curves, dashed curves (completely superimposed by the solid curves), and circles represent the predictions of the original model, the simplified model, and the FEM numerical results, respectively.

Fig. 4. Electric-field intensities (a) |EAPM|2 and (b) |Eres|2 of the APM field and of the residual field for the TM S-mode (already shown in Fig. 2) with particle size D=100  nm. The APM field is artificially extended into the deep subwavelength ϕ range of the nanoparticle where the APM has no definition. (c) and (d) The same as (a) and (b) but for a larger D=500  nm. Here the electric radial-components of the two matched counterpropagating APMs are normalized to have Er=1 at r=7.95  μm and ϕ=0 for the two particle sizes, so that a direct comparison of their corresponding residual fields can reflect the weight of the residual field relative to the matched APM field (or to the total field).

Fig. 5. (a) Diagram of the cylindrical microcavity with adsorption of a nanoparticle under the Cartesian coordinate system (x,y,z). a and b are the complex amplitude coefficients of the two counterpropagating APMs matched to the resonant mode considered in the model. (b) The system is mapped to be an equivalent straight waveguide with adsorption of a periodic array of nanoparticles along the ϕ direction under the extended cylindrical coordinate system (r,z,ϕ). (c) Scattering problem for defining the reflection and transmission coefficients ρ and τ of the matched APM at the nanoparticle. (d) Artificial periodic structure for applying the a-FMM to model the scattering problem shown in (c).

Fig. 6. (a)–(b) Iteration process of solving the complex eigenfrequency of the resonant mode (blue and red curves for S-mode and AS-mode, respectively) in Fig. 2 in the main text, with adsorbed nanoparticle size D=100  nm. N represents the number of iteration, and the initial value of iteration is ν0=1.9986×1014  Hz (corresponding to wavelength 1.5 μm). The inset in (a) is a magnified view of the iteration curves. (c)–(f) |ρ|, |τ|, Re(neff), and Im(neff) plotted as a function of frequency ν (the shown frequency range corresponding to a wavelength range 1.3–1.7 μm).

Fig. 7. (a)–(f) The same as Fig. 2 in the main text but for the resonant mode corresponding to the unperturbed TM1,59 WGM [with resonance frequency Re(νc,0)=1.964712×1014  Hz] supported by the microcavity with radius R=11  μm. (g)–(h) The same as Figs. 2(a)2(b) in the main text but corresponding to TE3,100 WGM with Re(νc,0)=1.974072×1014  Hz and R=20  μm.

Fig. 8. Blueshift (δ>0) relative to the unperturbed TM1,42 (a) and TE1,42 (c) WGMs plotted as a function of nanoparticle size D. The results are obtained for a refractive index 0.59 of the adsorbed particle that is lower than the refractive index of the particle’s surrounding medium of air. All other parameters are the same as those in Fig. 2 of the main text. (b) and (d) show the negative values of arg(τ±ρ) for different D corresponding to (a) and (c), respectively. The blue and red curves show the results of the S-mode and the AS-mode, respectively.
