ABSTRACT:
At least one optical resonator having a selected optical processing property is formed upon a substrate. Various property resonators may be stacked upon one another so as to share a common optical axis. A resonator typically has a pair of multilayer dielectric or semiconductor mirrors formed on opposite ends of an optical cavity with the mirrors formed in a plane parallel to the substrate surface. Temperature and mechanical stability superior to current technology is thus achievable in the structure. Additional combinations of mirrors, cavities and gratings may be formed in conjunction with the resonator.
