Thermal-noise-limited, compact optical reference cavity operated without a vacuum enclosure
arXiv:2307.04758
Abstract
We present an in-vacuum bonded, 9.7 mL-volume Fabry-Pérot ultrastable optical reference cavity that operates without a vacuum enclosure. A laser stabilized to the cavity demonstrates low, thermal noise-limited phase noise and 5x10^{-14} Allan deviation at 1 second.
