Practical Considerations on the Multi-layer Mirrors for Superluminal Ring Laser Gyroscopes
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have created a simple model to analyze the restrictions on superluminal ring laser gyroscopes arising from the absorption of coating materials. For a ring laser gyroscope with a cavity length of 15 cm, the scale factor enhancement is nearly impossible due to absorption from the high dispersion mirror. In order to obtain a practical superluminal ring laser gyroscope, the extinction coefficient of coating materials should be less than 1E-10, which is a challenge at present.

متن کاملDesign of a superluminal ring laser gyroscope using multilayer optical coatings with huge group delay
We propose and analyze a superluminal ring laser gyroscope (RLG) using multilayer optical coatings with huge group delay (GD). This GD assisted superluminal RLG can measure the absolute rotation with a giant sensitivity-enhancement factor of ~10(3); while, the broadband FWHM of the enhancement factor can reach 20 MHz. This superluminal RLG is based on a traditional RLG with minimal re-engineeri...

In this paper, a practical simulation method for optimizing of x-ray reflection of nano-multilayer mirrors in three different edge energies: Cr-Kα, Co-Kα, and Ti-Kα is discussed in order to obtain the most reflection based on quarter-wave thickness method (QW). In this method, the reflected x-ray will have a constructive interference, and a peak, called Brag peak, will appear in reflection curv...
