Thermal noise in interferometric gravitational wave detectors due to dielectric optical coatings
Gregory M. Harry, Andri M. Gretarsson, Peter R. Saulson +9
We report on thermal noise from the internal friction of dielectric coatings made from alternating layers of Ta2O5 and SiO2 deposited on fused silica substrates. We present calcula…

Excess Mechanical Loss Associated with Dielectric Mirror Coatings on Test Masses in Interferometric Gravitational Wave Detectors
D. R. M. Crooks, P. Sneddon, G. Cagnoli +9
Interferometric gravitational wave detectors use mirrors whose substrates are formed from materials of low intrinsic mechanical dissipation. The two most likely choices for the tes…
