Quantum Enhancement of a 4 km Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Detector [E-Book] / by Sheon S. Y. Chua.
The work in this thesis was a part of the experiment of squeezed light injection into the LIGO interferometer. The work first discusses the detailed design of the squeezed light source which would be used for the experiment. The specific design is the doubly-resonant, traveling-wave bow-tie cavity s...
