我们报告可逆和连续变形的软微谐振器和控制其谐振分裂和定向发射。在计算机全息镊子的辅助下，作为我们设备的光学变形器，我们逐渐变形液滴回音壁腔的形状并改变其功能。例如，我们不断变形六角形腔矩形的，并演示切换到定向发射模式的操作，或分裂的谐振模式，以10 GHz的分离的双合模。改进空间光调制器和镊子的持续趋势表明，我们的方法是可扩展的，可以控制许多单个设备的形状和功能。我们还展示了可选的固化，证明了变压器启用应用的可行性，包括印刷光学电路和多波长光网络。(c)2021年作者。所有文章内容，除非另有说明，是根据知识共享署名（CC BY）许可证（http：//creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/）。
We report on reversible and continuously deformable soft micro-resonators and the control of their resonance split and directional emission. Assisted by computerized holographic-tweezers, functioning as an optical deformer of our device, we gradually deform the shape and change the functionality of a droplet whispering-gallery cavity. For example, we continuously deform hexagonal cavities to rectangular ones and demonstrate switching to directionally emitting mode-of-operation, or splitting a resonant mode to a 10-GHz separated doublet. A continuous trend of improving spatial light modulators and tweezers suggests that our method is scalable and can control the shape and functionality of many individual devices. We also demonstrate optional solidification, proving the feasibility of transformer-enabled applications, including in printing optical circuits and multiwavelength optical networks.
