High-Q maintenance of microcavity by using a sealed and packaged structure

摘要

The high-Q maintenance of microcavities greatly challenges the microresonator-based practical application. In this paper, the Q spoiling factors are demonstrated experimentally to show the Q spoiling which originated from the water and the particulate in the surroundings. Then we propose and realize the Q maintenance through constructing a sealed and packaged microcavity regime. In the packaged structure the Q decreases a little but a high Q larger than 106 can be achieved continuously. Moreover, the sealed structure has good performance to maintain the high Q for a long time with the standard deviation about 104, because the Q spoiling factors are isolated by the package layer. Additionally, the package also enhances the robustness. These merits can promote the practical application of the microcavities.
