Optical Resonators

Optical Resonators is a physical system that confines light waves in a confined optical path to sustain resonant modes through constructive interference, distinguished from other waveguiding structures by its reliance on reflective boundaries to achieve high spectral selectivity and enhanced light-matter interaction.
