Correction to: Nature Communications 10.1038/s41467-023-43367-z, published online 06 December 2023

The original version of the published Article had incorrect assignment of references in Table 1 (see below)

Table 1.

Performance of comparable cavity ring-down spectrometers operating near 4.5 μm

Reference α0 at 1 s (cm−1 Hz−1/2) L (m) α0 at 1 s for L = 10 cm (cm−1 Hz−1/2)
INO-CNR18 5.0 × 10−9 1 5.0 × 10-7
VTT19 2.1 × 10−9 0.4 3.4 × 10-8
Nagoya20 1.1 × 10−8 0.11 1.3 × 10-8
NIST21 2.6 × 10−11 1.5 5.9 × 10-9
LLNL15,22 1.2 × 10−10 0.67 5.3 × 10-9
This work 6.0 × 10−11 0.79 3.7 × 10-9

Here the absorption coefficient at 1 s integration, cavity length, and normalized performance for each system are shown. The ultralow optical loss of our crystalline coatings yields the lowest normalized noise-equivalent absorption.

For reading Table 1 correctly, the following list of reference changes are applicable

  • In Line 1, INO-CNR – reference changes from 18 to 20

  • Line 2, VTT – reference changes from 19 to 21

  • Line 3, Nagoya – reference changes from 20 to 22

  • Line 4, NIST – reference changes from 21 to 23

  • Line 5, LLNL – reference changes from 15&22 to 17&24, respectively.

The original article has been corrected.
