Doppler-Induced Dynamics of Fields in Fabry-Perot Cavities with Suspended Mirrors
Malik Rakhmanov
Abstract
The Doppler effect in Fabry-Perot cavities with suspended mirrors is analyzed. Intrinsically small, the Doppler shift accumulates in the cavity and becomes comparable to or greater than the line-width of the cavity if its finesse is high or its length is large. As a result, damped oscillations of the cavity field occur when one of the mirrors passes a resonance position. A formula for this transient is derived. It is shown that the frequency of the oscillations is equal to the accumulated Doppler shift and the relaxation time of the oscillations is equal to the storage time of the cavity. Comparison of the predicted and the measured Doppler shift is discussed, and application of the analytical solution for measurement of the mirror velocity is described.
