Feedback-free optical cavity with self-resonating mechanism
We demonstrated the operation of a high finesse optical cavity without
utilizing an active feedback system to stabilize the resonance. The effective
finesse, which is a finesse including the overall system performance, of the
cavity was measured to be , and the laser power stored in
the cavity was kW, which is approximately 187,000 times greater
than the incident power to the cavity. The stored power was stabilized with a
fluctuation of , and we confirmed continuous cavity operation for more
than two hours. This result has the potential to trigger an innovative
evolution for applications that use optical resonant cavities such as compact
photon sources with laser-Compton scattering or cavity enhanced absorption
spectroscopy.Comment: 5 pages, 7 figure

A comparative study of selected sorbents for sampling of aromatic VOCs from indoor air
Indoor air canbecome pollutedwith VOCs, and understanding the factors which affect adsorption of VOCs from indoor air is important for: (i) the accurate measurement of VOCs, and (ii) to apply mitigation strategies when high analyte concentrations are measured. In this study four VOCs (toluene, ethylbenzene, cumene and dichlorobenzene) were generated as a constant and controlled polluted air stream of VOCs from a dynamic atmospheric chamber. The effects of relative humidity, and sampling flow rate, on adsorption onto Tenax TA and the relatively new silica adsorbents SBA-15 or MCM-41 were studied
