Researchers have developed a novel experimental platform to measure the electric fields of light trapped between two mirrors with a sub-cycle precision. These electro-optic Fabry-Perot resonators will ...

Optical cavities form the cornerstone of high-precision laser frequency stabilisation by confining light between mirrors to produce well-defined resonant modes. In these systems, the stability of the ...

Funhouse mirrors help us learn about light and reflection. Mirrors are used for more than checking your face in the morning. Scientists have lots of uses for mirrors. Find out more about the different ...
