Popis: | Axion-like particles (ALPs) are undiscovered pseudo-scalar particles that are candidates for ultralight dark matter. ALPs interact with photons slightly and cause the rotational oscillation of linearly polarized light. Dark matter Axion search with riNg Cavity Experiment (DANCE) searches for ALP dark matter by amplifying the rotational oscillation with a bow-tie ring cavity. Simultaneous resonance of linear polarizations is necessary to amplify both the carrier field and the ALP signal, and to achieve the design sensitivity. The sensitivity of the current prototype experiment DANCE Act-1 is less than expectation by around three orders of magnitude due to the resonant frequency difference between s- and p-polarization in the bow-tie ring cavity. In order to tune the resonant frequency difference, the method of introducing an auxiliary cavity was proposed. We designed an auxiliary cavity that can cancel out the resonant frequency difference and realize simultaneous resonance, considering optical loss. We also confirmed that the sensitivity of DANCE Act-1 with the auxiliary cavity can reach the original sensitivity.
