Bulk whispering gallery mode optical resonators like spheres and disks provide a wide range of remarkable optical properties and ultra-high quality factors. In this invited presentation we will show our most recent results on the use of subwavelength metamaterial engineering to couple bulk resonators and integrated Si waveguides. We experimentally achieve up to 99% light coupling efficiency for microspheres and microdisks made of silica, lithium niobate, and calcium fluoride, with diameters between 300 µm and 3.6 mm. These results open promising prospects for the implementation of a new generation of devices combining high-performance bulk resonators and complex Si photonic circuits.
