  • Abstract
    It is shown that low-loss passive ring optical resonators can possess unidirectional stability; i.e., in such resonators, a wave that is concentrated near the optical axis of the resonator and that exponentially decays in the directions perpendicular to the optical axis exists for only one of two senses of rotation.
