The "optical lever" intracavity readout scheme for gravitational-wave antennae
arXiv:gr-qc/0203002 · doi:10.1016/S0375-9601(02)00578-9
Abstract
An improved version of the ``optical bar'' intracavity readout scheme for gravitational-wave antennae is considered. We propose to call this scheme ``optical lever'' because it can provide significant gain in the signal displacement of the local mirror similar to the gain which can be obtained using ordinary mechanical lever with unequal arms. In this scheme displacement of the local mirror can be close to the signal displacement of the end mirrors of hypothetical gravitational-wave antenna with arm lengths equal to the half-wavelength of the gravitational wave.
