Abstract
An analytical model of a traveling-wave optical resonator with total-internal-reflection mirrors is studied. It is shown that the number of reflections from the mirrors can be increased manifold without attenuation of the light wave in comparison with Fabry–Perot resonators. Ways to eliminate edge effects and design solutions to compensate angular errors in manufacturing the resonator are considered.
