Lasers stabilized to vacuum-gap Fabry-P\'erot optical reference cavities display extraordinarily low noise and high stability, with linewidths much less than 1 Hz. These lasers can expand into new applications and ubiquitous use with the…
We present an in-vacuum bonded, 9.7 mL-volume Fabry-P\'erot 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}…
We report on the development of a sub-kelvin, single-crystal silicon Fabry-Perot cavity. Operating such a cavity below 1~K should reduce the thermal noise limit of the cavity, and by this way address the current limitations of ultrastable…
Astrophysical observations suggest the existence of an unknown kind of matter in the Universe, in the frame of the $\Lambda$CDM model. The research field of dark matter covers an energy scale going from massive objects to ultra-light scalar…

A stable optical resonator has been built using a 30 micrometer-wide, metal-coated microcantilever as one mirror. The second mirror was a 12.7 mm-diameter concave dielectric mirror. By positioning the two mirrors 75 mm apart in a…
Narrow-linewidth lasers are vital for a broad range of scientific and technological applications, including atomic clocks and precision sensing. Achieving high frequency stability is often as critical as ensuring scalability, portability,…
The frequency stability of a laser locked to an optical reference cavity is fundamentally limited by thermal noise in the cavity length. These fluctuations are linked to material dissipation, which depends both on the temperature of the…

We analyse the dynamics of a one-dimensional vertical Fabry-P\'erot cavity, where the upper mirror levitates due to intra-cavity radiation pressure force. A perturbative approach is used based around separation of timescales, which allows…
It is demonstrated that RF current modulation of a frequency stabilized injection-locked diode laser allows the stabilization of an optical cavity to adjustable lengths, by variation of the RF frequency. This transfer cavity may be used to…
