Popis: Efforts to create materials in which to burn holes at higher temperatures face an inherent contradiction: the need for inhomogeneous line broadening from host-guest interactions, vs. the desire to limit the homogeneous line broadening from thermal fluctuations of host-guest interactions (i.e. phonon broadening). A different approach to the question of how to burn holes at high temperatures was recently conceived and experimentally confirmed.1 This approach relies on using distributions of chromophore-doped optical cavities as the hole burning medium. The effect was recently observed in dye-doped micro-spheres. As a simple model illustrating the important effects characteristic to these Mie theory cavity resonances in spheres, the Fabry-Perot is treated analytically and numerically in this work.
