Abstract :
We demonstrate reflected microfiber ring resonator consisting of a ring resonator and a sagnac interferometer. The free spectral range of the resonator can be easily tuned by adjusting ring diameter. The resonance extinction ratio is remarkably enhanced compared with microfiber ring resonator without sagnac interferometer.
