Abstract

Two configurations for coupling two Fabry-Perot resonators are discussed, one with no loss in the coupling path and one with loss. The lossy configuration is found to give discrimination between supermodes and, for certain cases, equal supermode frequency. With inhomogeneously broadened gain, the lossy configuration is found to suppress one supermode, while the lossless configuration does not. A locking range is predicted for the lossy configuration.
