Observation of the Three-Mode Parametric Instability
X. Chen, C. Zhao, S. Danilishin +14
Three-mode parametric interactions occur in triply-resonant optomechanical systems: photons from an optical pump mode are coherently scattered to a high-order mode by mechanical mo…
2D photonic-crystal optomechanical nanoresonator
K. Makles, T. Antoni, A. G. Kuhn +12
We present the optical optimization of an optomechanical device based on a suspended InP membrane patterned with a 2D near-wavelength grating (NWG) based on a 2D photonic-crystal g…
Advanced Virgo: a 2nd generation interferometric gravitational wave detector
F. Acernese, M. Agathos, K. Agatsuma +231
Advanced Virgo is the project to upgrade the Virgo interferometric detector of gravitational waves, with the aim of increasing the number of observable galaxies (and thus the detec…
Reconstruction of the gravitational wave signal during the Virgo science runs and independent validation with a photon calibrator
Virgo collaboration, T. Accadia, F. Acernese +193
The Virgo detector is a kilometer-scale interferometer for gravitational wave detection located near Pisa (Italy). About 13 months of data were accumulated during four science runs…
Measurements of mechanical thermal noise and energy dissipation in optical dielectric coatings
Tianjun Li, Felipe A. Aguilar Sandoval, Mickael Geitner +10
In recent years an increasing number of devices and experiments are shown to be limited by mechanical thermal noise. In particular sub-Hertz laser frequency stabilization and gravi…
