Mirror, mirror on the wall, who has the lowest noise of them all…



Researchers in Vienna and Boulder demonstrate a leap forward in optical coating technology.

An international collaboration of scientists in Austria and the US demonstrate a novel “crystalline coating” technique for producing low-loss mirrors. This technology will further accelerate progress in the development of narrow-linewidth lasers. The work appears this week in an advanced online publication of Nature Photonics.
