Liquid microdroplet resonators provide an excellent tool for optical studies due to their innate smoothness and high quality factors, but precise control over their geometries can be difficult. In contrast, three dimensional (3D) printed components are highly customizable but suffer from roughness and pixelation. We present 3D printed structures which leverage the versatility of 3D printing with the smoothness of microdroplets. Our devices enable the reliable creation of microdroplet resonators of varying shapes and sizes in an ambient environment, and our coupling scheme allows for high control over droplet position. |
