Investigation of mode radiation loss for microdisk resonators with pedestals by

Mode radiation loss for microdisk resonators with pedestals is investigated by three-dimensional (3D) finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) technique. For the microdisk with a radius of 1 \mu m, a thickness of 0.2 \mu m, and a refractive index of 3.4, on a pedestal with a refractive index of 3.17, th
