Abstract
L'invention a pour objet un résonateur optique sélectif. Selon l'invention, le resonateur comprend, entre deux miroirs 2 et 4, un moyen de polarisation partielle 6, une première lame quart d'onde 8 dont un axe neutre est parallèle à la direction de polarisation, une substance optiquement active 10 présentant de la dispersion, une seconde lame quart d'onde 12 dont un axe neutre fait un angle alpha 2 par rapport à la direction P. La longueur d'onde de filtrage est celle pour laquelle la rotation à la traversée de la substance 10 est égale à l'angle alpha 2. Application à la réalisation de lasers monofréquence et à la stabilisation en fréquence de lasers.
