Design of a transportable miniaturized optical reference cavity with flexibly tunable thermal expansion properties

A 3-cm-long optical reference cavity for transportable miniaturized ultra-stable laser is designed and analyzed using finite element analysis (FEA). Although the tiny cavity is formed in a conventional way, in which a cylinder spacer made of ultra-low expansion (ULE) glass is optically contacted wit...
