Show affiliationsIn this paper, bendloss characteristics of an optical fibre are investigated in detail, and the results show that the resonator with a smaller ring radius, wider free spectrum range (FSR), higher fineness (f) and quality-factor (Q) can be achieved by using microfibres. Based on the improved fused taper technique, a high-quality microfibre with 5 pm radius has been fabricated, and an all-fibre micro-ring resonator with a radius of only 500 pm is realized using self-coiling coupling method. The good-resonant characteristic makes the all-fibre device be expected to avoid bendloss and connection loss associated with planar waveguide integration.
