Multicolor cavity metrology.
Long-baseline laser interferometers used for gravitational-wave detection have proven to be very complicated to control. In order to have sufficient sensitivity to astrophysical gravitational waves, a set of multiple coupled optical cavities comprising the interferometer must be brought into resonance with the laser field. A set of multi-input, multi-output servos then lock these cavities into ...
متن کاملMulticolor quantum metrology with entangled photons.
Entangled photons can be used to make measurements with an accuracy beyond that possible with classical light. While most implementations of quantum metrology have used states made up of a single color of photons, we show that entangled states of two colors can show supersensitivity to optical phase and path length by using a photonic crystal fiber source of photon pairs inside an interferomete...
متن کاملCompact extended-cavity diode laser for atomic spectroscopy and metrology
We report on a compact, inexpensive, and durable extended-cavity diode laser ECDL of an original mechanical concept. The independent temperature control of a laser diode and an extended cavity provides a low-frequency drift. The linewidth of a few hundred kilohertz was measured by taking a beating of two identical ECDLs. The continuous tuning range of about 1 Å is achieved by the synchronous sc...
متن کاملComputational Metrology
Coordinate measuring systems (CMSs) assess length-based characteristics of mechanical parts by measuring points on the part surface and analyzing the point data. Data analysis software can contribute significantly to the total measurement error of a CMS. Factors affecting software performance include the choice of analysis method, the quality of the software, and characteristics of the specific...
متن کاملSurface metrology
Some important types of instrumentation for measuring surfaces both past and present are reviewed. Exhaustive lists of instruments and performance are not presented; rather more emphasis is placed on the philosophy of measurement. An attempt is made to classify the surface features and also the function of surfaces as a pre-requisite to measurement. It is revealed that, as the push towards mini...
