Modeling of microfluid droplet resonator based on whisper gallery mode by Dong, Bin

“…Since the droplet is formed by surface tension, the surface will be quite smooth, so that whisper gallery modes can be formed near the surface of the droplet, which means the light will be transmitted by total internal refraction near the surface and get accumulated. …”
