Misalignment sensitivity of optical resonators

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The effect of mirror misalignment of spherical resonators is investigated experimentally and compared to first-order perturbation theory. An expression D is derived, which characterizes the misalignment sensitivity of any spherical resonator. It is proved experimentally that this misalignment sensitivity depends on the effective resonator length L* and the gi parameters only.
