Optimal alignment sensing of a readout mode cleaner cavity

Optimal alignment sensing of a readout mode cleaner cavity

Critically coupled resonant optical cavities are often used as mode cleaners in optical systems to improve the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of a signal that is encoded as an amplitude modulation of a laser beam. Achieving the best SNR requires maintaining the alignment of the mode cleaner relative to...
