Measurement Techniques Aims and scope

Abstract

An optical device is described that maintains undamped circulation of a single short light pulse in a closed loop. A circulator based on the latest fiber-optic components can be used as a frequency measure in the radio range and also for frequency measurement of distances, measurement of single pulse lengths, and so on.
