Coating-free mirrors for high precision interferometric experiments
Thermal noise in mirror optical coatings may not only limit the sensitivity of future gravitational-wave detectors in their most sensitive frequency band but is also a major impediment for experiments that aim to reach the standard quantum limit or cool mechanical systems to their quantum ground state. We present the design and experimental characterization of a highly reflecting mirror without...
متن کاملCoating-Free Mirrors for Ultra-Sensitive Interferometry
Thermodynamical fluctuations impose random noise on the position of optical components. It is predicted that this thermal noise will limit the sensitivity of interferometric gravitational-wave detectors in their most sensitive frequency band. Thermal noise originating from optical coatings was first considered in the context of interferometric gravitational wave detectors. Its true significance...
متن کاملInterferometric monitoring of dip coating.
Dip-coated films, which are widely used in the coating industry, are usually measured by capacitive methods with micrometric precision. For the first time to our knowledge, we have applied an interferometric determination of the evolution of thickness in real time to nonvolatile Newtonian mineral oils with several viscosities and distinct dip withdrawing speeds. The evolution of film thickness ...
متن کاملHigh efficiency positron accumulation for high-precision magnetic moment experiments.
Positrons are accumulated within a Penning trap designed to make more precise measurements of the positron and electron magnetic moments. The retractable radioactive source used is weak enough to require no license for handling radioactive material, and the radiation dosage 1 m from the source gives an exposure several times smaller than the average radiation dose on the earth's surface. The 10...
متن کاملPrecision Interferometric Metrology
In this paper, we propose the use of sinusoidalfrequency modulation on a laser diode (LD) toachieve both frequency stabilization of the LDand a displacement measurement with ahomodyne interferometer. The central frequencyof the LD is stabilized to a Doppler broadened(linear) absorption or a Doppler free (saturated)absorption line of iodine (I2) molecule near thew...
