A thermoelastic limit on the focal intensity in Fabry-Pérot cavities

Jeremy J. Axelrod, Lothar Maisenbacher, Ashwin Singh +4

Light in the mode of a Fabry-Pérot cavity heats the mirror surfaces via optical absorption, causing thermoelastic deformation of the mirror substrates, which in turn dictates the s…

Ultrahigh continuous-wave intensities in high-NA optical cavities through suppression of the parametric oscillatory instability

L. Maisenbacher, A. Singh, I. M. Pope +1

Ultrahigh continuous-wave intensities (>300 GW/cm) in high-NA optical cavities enable applications from phase-contrast electron microscopy to ultradeep dipole traps for molecul…

Sub-part-per-trillion test of the Standard Model with atomic hydrogen

Lothar Maisenbacher, Vitaly Wirthl, Arthur Matveev +4

Quantum electrodynamics (QED), the first relativistic quantum field theory, describes light-matter interactions at a fundamental level and is one of the pillars of the Standard Mod…

Precision spectroscopy of the 2S-P transitions in atomic hydrogen

Lothar Maisenbacher

Precision spectroscopy of atomic hydrogen is an important way to test bound-state quantum electrodynamics (QED), one of the building blocks of the Standard Model. In its simplest f…

A nanoscale vacuum-tube diode triggered by few-cycle laser pulses

Takuya Higuchi, Lothar Maisenbacher, Andreas Liehl +2

We propose and demonstrate a nanoscale vacuum-tube diode triggered by few-cycle near-infrared laser pulses. It represents an ultrafast electronic device based on light fields, expl…
