| Abstract: | Results of an experimental study of an optical Fabry-Perot resonant cavity operated between temperatures of 77 and 300 K are presented. In particular, measurements of the cavity finesse and thermal expansion are discussed in terms of new and current applications for such a device. These include energy sensors for Weber-bar type gravitational wave antennas, high-stability laser oscillators, and high-sensitivity thermal-expansion studies of condensed matter. |
