Question
Consider a stableoptical cavity of length L consisting of two mirrors with coincident optic axes. One of the mirrors is
perfectly flat, while the other mirror has a radius of curvature R . Both mirrors have a diameter of 1 inch and have a
reflectivity of 0.95; in other words, they each reflect ninety-five percent of the incident power. Consider an external
Gaussian beamwith wavelength one micron that is incident on the cavity. The cavity is oriented so that the beam is normally
incident on the flat mirror. At the mirror surface the incident beam has a flat phasefront and Gaussian field width w .
Assuming w is always chosen to produce the best possiblemode-matching, produce a surface (and/or contour) plot of the
power transmitted through the cavity as a function of L and R . In order to illustrate all the behavior of interest, you may
include several version of the plot showing views of the surface from different angles and at different zoom levels. You may
also find it useful to produce “cuts†of the surface at constant and/or constant . Use mathematica
