Martin van Exter Lab - Quantum Optics and Light-Matter Interaction
Open Micro Cavities
We develop open micro cavities to trap light in small volumes and thereby increase the interaction with intra-cavity emitters. Important aspects in this development are the optical penetration in the mirrors, coupling between optical modes, and scattering and clipping losses.
