This paper demonstrates whispering gallery mode (WGM) resonance with the help of an encaved optical nano-probe developed inside an optical fiber tip cavity. The nano-probe generates a tightly focused beam with a spot-size of ∼3 µm. A barium titanate microsphere is placed besides the optical axis inside the cavity. The focused beam remains off-axis of the microresonator and excites the WGM. The off-axis excitation shows unique resonating properties depending on the location of the resonator. A resonant peak with quality factor as high as Q ∼7 × 10 4 is achieved experimentally. Another design with a shorter cavity length for a bigger resonator is also demonstrated by embedding a bigger microsphere on the cleaved fiber tip surface. The optical probe holds great potential for photonic devices and is ideal for studying morphology-based scattering problems.
