Phase-sensitive optomechanical amplifier for quantum noise reduction in laser interferometers
The sensitivity of future gravitational wave interferometers is expected to be limited through-out the detection band by quantum vacuum fluctuations, which can be reduced by quantum non-demolition methods such as squeezed vacuum injection. However, optical losses in the readout chainseverely limit the effectiveness of such schemes. We propose an optomechanical …
