Tóm tắt

A ring laser is defined by its perimeter, which directly enters the conversion factor between the measured Sagnac frequency and the actual rotation rate. Large ring lasers employed in geodesy and fundamental physics require stability of the perimeter at or below the parts-per-billion level. We present two complementary approaches to actively control the perimeter length of such ring lasers, reaching a relative length stability of 4 × 10
