“…This fact seems very surprising, taking into account the great attention paid by different research groups to tellurite microresonators over the past 20 years, − as well as the huge successes achieved in the field of nonlinear optics exploiting Raman effects in tellurite glass fibers, including supercontinuum generation, , soliton self-frequency shift, and a widely tunable continuous wave (CW) Raman laser . We also note that technologies for integrating tellurite microresonators on chips are currently being actively developed, , which clearly indicates the great interest that they represent for real applications. At present, advances in the use of tellurite microresonators are associated mainly with lasing in samples doped with different rare-earth ions. ,,,,, This may be due to the fact that the implementation of laser effects requires a lower Q -factor than the implementation of nonlinear optical effects.…”
