We experimentally realize a Fabry-Perot-type optical microresonator near the
cesium D2 line wavelength based on a tapered optical fiber, equipped with two
fiber Bragg gratings which enclose a sub-wavelength diameter waist. Owing to
the very low taper losses, the finesse of the resonator reaches F = 86 while
the on-resonance transmission is T = 11 %. The characteristics of our resonator
fulfill the requirements of non-linear optics and cavity quantum
electrodynamics in the strong coupling regime. In combination with its
demonstrated ease of use and its advantageous mode geometry, it thus opens a
realm of applications.
