| Description | One of the goals of the Stanford University-NASA Laser-In-space Technology Experiment (SUNLITE) program is to develop ultrastable optical frequency oscillators that can lead to high resolution time standards and ultimately standard clocks. During the past year or two there was remarkable progress towards achieving in the laboratory the fundamental quantum limits for the frequency stability of nonplanar ring oscillator (NPRO) lasers. The quantum theoretical limits for laser oscillator stability are reviewed, measured stability levels compared, and some applications of such ultrastable laser oscillator systems suggested. |
