An asymmetric resonant optical cavity is constructed of an optically transmissive dielectric material having an index of refraction n. The cavity is configured as an oval cross-section of area A, having major and minor axes. An optical input couples an optical signal of wavelength .lambda....http://www.google.ca/patents/US5742633?utm_source=gb-gplus-sharePatent US5742633 - Asymmetric resonant optical cavity apparatus
