Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To reduce the thermal noise on the optical cavity and achieve excellent frequency stabilities of lasers, we designed a very long cavity using an ultra-low expansion ceramic spacer. However, it was difficult for the product company to make the thick ceramic parts with the good thermal properties due to the technical problems. Therefore, we have employed another optical cavity that has crystalline coatings on the mirrors, because the crystalline coating mirror has high mechanical Q factor. Using the cavity, we expect that the thermal noise limit of the frequency stability will be about one tenth of that for the previous optical cavity.
