Direct Observation of Broadband Coating Thermal Noise in a Suspended Interferometer
Eric D. Black, Akira Villar, Kyle Barbary +10
We have directly observed broadband thermal noise in silica/tantala coatings in a high-sensitivity Fabry-Perot interferometer. Our result agrees well with the prediction based on i…

Enhanced photothermal displacement spectroscopy for thin-film characterization using a Fabry-Perot resonator
Eric D. Black, Ivan S. Grudinin, Shanti R. Rao +1
We have developed a new technique for photothermal displacement spectroscopy that is potentially orders of magnitude more sensitive than conventional methods. We use a single Fabry…

The photothermal effect in interferometers
Shanti R. Rao
We have measured the photothermal effect in a single cross-polarized interferometer at audio frequencies (5 Hz - 4 kHz). In a Fabry-Perot interferometer, light in one polarization…
