Towards thermal noise free optomechanics
Thermal noise generally greatly exceeds quantum noise in optomechanical devices unless the mechanical frequency is very high or the thermodynamic temperature is very low. This paper addresses the design concept for a novel optomechanical device capable of ultrahigh quality factors in the audio frequency band with negligible thermal noise. The proposed system consists of a minimally supported mi...
متن کاملBrownian Thermal Noise in Interferometric Gravitational Wave Detectors and Single Photon Optomechanics
The Laser Interferometric Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) is designed to detect the Gravitational Waves (GW) predicted by Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity. The advanced LIGO project is ongoing an upgrade to increase the detection sensitivity by more than a factor of 10, which will make the events detection a routine occurrence. In addition to using higher power lasers, heavi...
متن کاملCavity optomechanics with low-noise crystalline mirrors
Cavity optomechanics is a rapidly evolving field operating at the intersection of solid-state physics and modern optics. The fundamental process at the heart of this interdisciplinary endeavor is the enhancement of radiation pressure within a high-finesse optical cavity. Isolating this weak interaction, i.e. the momentum transfer of photons onto the cavity boundaries, requires the development o...
متن کاملNoise-Free Amplification: Towards Quantum Laser Radar
The architecture of a Quantum Imaging LADAR is shown in Fig. 1. Without the elements depicted by dashed lines, it is equivalent to current state-ofthe-art JIGSAW LADAR [1], where 3D pictures (2 transverse dimensions + time-of-flight information) of the target are collected from different points to permit foliage cover penetration. In the quantum configuration, a Quantum Image Enhancer (QIE) is ...
متن کاملQuantum noise spectra for periodically driven cavity optomechanics
A growing number of experimental setups in cavity optomechanics exploit periodically driven fields. However, such setups are not amenable to analysis by using simple, yet powerful, closed-form expressions of linearized optomechanics, which have provided so much of our present understanding of experimental optomechanics. In the present paper, we formulate a method to calculate quantum noise spec...
