contents Compact and robust frequency-stabilized laser sources are critical for a variety of fields that require stable frequency standards, including field spectroscopy, radio astronomy, microwave generation, and geophysical monitoring. In this work, we applied a simple and compact fiber ring-resonator configuration that can stabilize both a continuous-wave laser and a self-referenced optical frequency comb to a vibration-insensitive optical fiber delay-line. We could achieve a thermal-noise-limited frequency noise level in the 10 Hz - 1 kHz offset frequency range for both the continuous-wave laser and the optical frequency comb with the minimal frequency instability of 2.7x10-14 at 0.03-s and 2.6x10-14 at 0.01-s averaging time, respectively, in non-vacuum condition. The optical fiber spool, working as a delay reference, is designed to be insensitive to external vibration, with a vibration sensitivity of sub-10-10 [1/g] and volume of 32 mL. Finally, the ring-resonator setup is packaged in a palm-sized aluminum case with 171-mL volume with a vibration-insensitive spool, as well as an even smaller 97-mL-volume case with an ultra-compact 9-mL miniaturized fiber spool.
