Observing and evading quantum back-action on a kilogram-scale oscillator
Begüm Kabagöz, Eric Oelker, Dhruva Ganapathy +203
Continuous quantum displacement measurements are fundamentally limited by a trade-off between readout imprecision and measurement back-action, constrained by the Heisenberg uncerta…
A Novel Arm-Length Stabilization Scheme for Gravitational-Wave Detectors with AlGaAs/GaAs Coated Mirrors
Jian Liu, Juntao Pan, Carl Blair +7
The arm length stabilisation system is employed in gravitational-wave detectors to reduce the velocity of the mirrors such that the arm cavities can be brought onto resonance in a…
Seismic Isolation of Optical Tables Using Piezo Actuators
Tailong Wang, Carl Blair, Ammar Al-Jodah +6
Seismic isolation is crucial for gravitational wave detectors as it minimizes ground vibrations, enabling the detection of faint gravitational wave signals. An active seismic isola…
Birefringence in a Silicon Beamsplitter at 2um for Future Gravitational Wave Detectors
Alex Adam, Carl Blair, Chunnong Zhao
The next generation of gravitational wave detectors will move to cryogenic operation in order to reduce thermal noise and thermal distortion. This necessitates a change in mirror s…
Demonstration of optical spring in an un-detuned cavity containing an optical parametric amplifier
Jian Liu, Juntao Pan, Carl Blair +4
Here we demonstrate the capacity to manipulate the optical spring (OS) effect by employing an optical parametric amplifier (OPA) within an optical cavity. We observed more than a f…
Three Mode Interactions as a Precision Monitoring Tool for Advanced Laser Interferometers
L Ju, C Zhao, D G Blair +3
Three-mode opto-acoustic interactions in advanced laser interferometer gravitational wave detectors have high sensitivity to thermally excited ultrasonic modes in their test masses…
