摘要

Abstract

Researchers in the field of whispering-gallery-mode (WGM) microresonators have proposed biointegrated low-threshold WGM lasers

to enable large-scale parallel single-cell tracking and barcoding. Although the reported devices have so far been primarily investigated in model applications

most recent results represent important steps towards the development of in vivo tags and sensors that utilize the unique and narrow spectral features of miniature WGM lasers.
