DITHERED RING LASER WITH MINIMIZED MIRROR BACKSCATTERING

摘要

RING LASERABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSUREA dithered ring laser particularly adapted foruse as a gyro wherein backscatter from the mirrors isminimized by servoing the mirror inward and outwardpositions so that the sum of the AC amplitudes of thecounterpropagating waves is reduced to a minimum value,then further servoing the mirrors to reduce the differencebetween such AC amplitudes.
