Substrate-transferred GaAs/AlGaAs crystalline coatings for gravitational-wave detectors: A review of the state of the art
G. D. Cole, S. Ballmer, G. Billingsley +16
In this Perspective we summarize the status of technological development for large-area and low-noise substrate-transferred GaAs/AlGaAs (AlGaAs) crystalline coatings for interferom…
Simultaneous Measurement of Mid-Infrared Refractive Indices in Thin-Film Heterostructures: Methodology and Results for GaAs/AlGaAs
Lukas W. Perner, Gar-Wing Truong, David Follman +5
We present our results for simultaneous measurement of the refractive indices of gallium arsenide (GaAs) and aluminum gallium arsenide (AlGaAs) from $2.…
Study on electro-optic noise in crystalline coatings toward future gravitational wave detectors
Satoshi Tanioka, Daniel Vander-Hyde, Garrett D. Cole +2
Thermal noise in high-reflectivity mirror coatings is a limiting factor in ground-based gravitational wave detectors. Reducing this coating thermal noise improves the sensitivity o…
Mid-infrared supermirrors with finesse exceeding 400 000
G. -W. Truong, L. W. Perner, D. M. Bailey +9
For trace gas sensing and precision spectroscopy, optical cavities incorporating low-loss mirrors are indispensable for path length and optical intensity enhancement. Optical inter…
Passive Laser Power Stabilization via an Optical Spring
Torrey Cullen, Scott Aronson, Ron Pagano +8
Metrology experiments can be limited by the noise produced by the laser involved via small fluctuations in the laser's power or frequency. Typically, active power stabilization sch…
Spectral Characterization of a Microbolometer Focal Plane Array at Terahertz Frequencies
D. Jang, M. Kimbrue, Y. J. Yoo +1
We have developed a method to characterize the spectral response of an uncooled microbolometer focal plane array at a broad range of terahertz (THz) frequencies (4~50 THz). This is…
