Abstract
Optical modes of the WG type were first indirectly observed in early experiments on stimulated emission [3] and later in [4, 5] on elastic and inelastic light scattering in aerosol droplets. The estimated Q-factor of the WG modes was i04-I0 s . At the same time estimates show that the Q-factor bf WG-modes in spherical microresonators made from an optically transparent dielectric may be very high, considerably above l0 s , and in the presence of optimum apparatus of coupling such resonators might be of interest as unique miniature narrow-band optical filters.
