Correction of Thermal Deviations in Fabry-Perot Resonator Based Measurements of Specific Gases in Millimeter Wave Bands
نویسندگان
چکیده
Due to the thermal expansivity of the material used in the Fabry-Perot resonator mirrors, the resonator cavity length can change and this might therefore have an impact on the resonant frequency during high-resolution spectroscopy measurements. Based on measurements and simulations, this paper discusses the influences of temperature on the precise determination of gas attenuation measured in a Fabry-Perot resonator. Several measures to mitigate such influence and to correct the measured results were tested. A correction method for the measured data was

A Millimeter-Wave Wideband High-Gain Antenna Based on the Fabry-Perot Resonator Antenna Concept
A compact millimeter-wave (MMW) wideband high-gain antenna is proposed and implemented. The development is based on the design principle of wideband Fabry-Perot resonator antennas (FPRAs). The antenna consists of triple-layer dielectric slabs and a PEC ground, and it is fed by a rectangular waveguide. All slabs are used to form the superstrate that exhibits the increasing reflection phase at th...

We report on optical properties of Fabry-Pérot (FP) resonator based on Si-air one-dimensional photonic crystal (1D PC) with coupled triple-cavity modes (or defects). These defects obtained by infiltration of the air-cavity with the filler of tunable refractive index. The coupled FP resonators design is CMOS compatible and has potential for application in tuning an individual transmission bands ...
متن کاملGeneration of a flat-top laser beam for gravitational wave detectors by means of a nonspherical Fabry-Perot resonator.
We have tested a new kind of Fabry-Perot long-baseline optical resonator proposed to reduce the thermal noise sensitivity of gravitational wave interferometric detectors--the "mesa beam" cavity--whose flat top beam shape is achieved by means of an aspherical end mirror. We present the fundamental mode intensity pattern for this cavity and its distortion due to surface imperfections and tilt mis...
متن کاملEnhanced photothermal displacement spectroscopy for thin-film characterization using a Fabry-Perot resonator
We have developed a technique for photothermal displacement spectroscopy that is potentially orders of magnitude more sensitive than conventional methods. We use a single Fabry-Perot resonator to enhance both the intensity of the pump beam and the sensitivity of the probe beam. The result is an enhancement of the response of the instrument by a factor proportional to the square of the finesse o...
متن کاملMonolithic Fabry-Perot resonator for the measurement of optical constants in the terahertz range
A prism-shaped monolithic Fabry-Perot resonator is shown to allow absorption measurements of liquid samples in the terahertz wave range. As the radiation source a backward-wave oscillator was chosen for its tunable, highly monochromatic, continuous wave. The resonator is made of high-resistivity silicon, with two surfaces acting as partial mirrors and forming the cavity, while a third one contr...
