title: Optical-axis perturbation in triaxial ring resonator.
abstract: We report several findings on the optical-axis perturbation of monolithic triaxial ring resonator. A criterion, C, which represents the mismatching error of the monolithic triaxial ring resonator, has been found out and it cannot be decreased by modifying the angles of the terminal surfaces or the terminal mirrors of the resonator. When C not equal 0, an optimization method to share the mismatching error C in some specific directions equally and simultaneously has been proposed. The interesting findings are important to cavity design, cavity improvement, and alignment of the monolithic triaxial ring resonator.
