摘要: We describe a prototype optical cavity and associated optics that has been developed to provide stable frequency reference for future space-based laser ranging system. This instrument is being considered inclusion as technology demonstration on the recently announced GRACE follow-on mission, which will monitor variations in Earth's gravity field.
