摘要
A temperature insensitive three-turn microfiber coil resonator (MCR) is demonstrated by embedding it in Teflon with opposite thermooptic coefficient. The temperature dependence of a MCR strongly depends on the microfiber size which controls the ratio of thermal effect contributions from silica and polymer. Fabricated from a similar to 3 mu m-diameter microfiber, the temperature dependence of our MCR is compensated to less than 6pm/degrees C. Further suppression of the temperature dependence can be realized with ideal microfiber radius. (C) 2011 Optical Society of America
