  • Abstract
    Photonic molecules formed by microresonators with coupled whispering gallery modes were studied by finite-difference time-domain modeling. Mode splitting was observed due to coherent coupling. Spatial mode distribution was shown to be different for each coupled mode. The advantages of photonic molecules over single resonators for sensing applications were demonstrated.
