Example of whispering gallery mode. Glass beads that exhibit a resonance are immobilized with capture antibodies. As the beads come into resonance with the incident wavelength, the increase in intensity can be observed. Analyte addition to the beads causes this resonance wavelength to shift. The change in the wavelength is proportional to analyte concentration. The photograph of the beads in resonance are reprinted with permission from: HA Huckabay, SM Wildgen, RC Dunn, Label-free detection of ovarian cancer biomarkers using whispering gallery mode imaging.
