Fiber based whispering-gallery-mode (WGM) microprobe, combining both the high optical field enhancement of the WGMs and the practicability of the fiber probe, is highly demanded in sensing and imaging. Here in this paper, we experimentally report the efficient far-field coupling of WGMs by scattering the focused laser beam through a nanotip. With the help of Purcell effect as well as the two-step focusing technique, a WGM excitation efficiency as high as 16.8% has been achieved. Both the input and output of the probe light propagate along the same fiber, which makes the whole coupling system a fiber based WGM microprobe for sensing/imaging applications.
