Thermal Noise in Optical Coatings

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

This paper will discuss the importance of thermal noise in optical coatings for gravitational wave detectors, its definition, merit figure, and approaches towards minimizing it with design, materials selection, and material modification. Experimental and ab initio computational materials modeling results will be highlighted.
