A continuously tunable modulation scheme for precision control of optical cavities with variable detuning
Abstract
We present a scheme for locking optical cavities with arbitrary detuning many line widths from resonance using an electro-optic modulator that can provide arbitrary ratios of amplitude to phase modulation. We demonstrate our scheme on a Fabry-Perot cavity, and show that a well-behaved linear error signal can be obtained by demodulating the reflected light from a cavity that is detuned by several line widths.
