Fig. 4From: Integrated end-to-end instrumentation for the study of whispering gallery modes in dynamic liquid micro-cavities coupled to sub-micron tapered fibersSchematic of experimental setup for fabrication of tapered fibers. MTS denotes two identical motorized translation stages. BOF: bare optical fiber, FT: flame-torch (hydrogen-oxygen torch), FFC: free space fiber coupler, PD: photo-detector, and MIC: microscope with a CCD camera attached to itBack to article page
