Description

We demonstrate the first cavity confinement of Bloch surface waves in the fundamental mode of a Fabry–Pérot cavity. The cavity consists of two distributed Bragg mirrors separated by a spacer of dimensions smaller than the wavelength (633nm). The cavity mode exhibits quality factor of 400. This quality factor is the highest recorded thus far for a subwavelength optical surface waves cavity. (paper)
