Quantum Noise in Interferometer

SQL of Quantum Noise in Interferometer

◮ Quantum noise in a laser interferometer detector arises from the

quantum nature of the light directly via the photon number fluctuations (shot noise ∝ 1/ √ N (N: number of photons)) or indirectly via random motion of the mirror under a fluctuating force ( radiation pressure fluctuations ∝ √ N).

◮ To minimize the uncertainty from the sum of two uncorrelated nose

effects may give the SQL when an input power is appropriately chosen.( Caves 1980,1981).

Quantum Noise in Interferometer

The ideas to reduce quantum noise for potential upgrades in GW interferometer detector include:

◮ Manipulating ubiquitous quantum field vacuum: Squeezed vacuum is

injected into the dark port of the beam splitter to improve the

  • sensitivity. (Caves 1980,1981)

GEO600 was upgraded with a source of squeezed light in mid-2010 and has since been testing it under operating conditions.

◮ Modifying input-output fields to enhance the signals and also

establish the correlation between Shot Noise and Radiation Pressure fluctuations for noise reduction such as signal recycle employed in GEO600 and Advanced LIGO.(See Buonanno and Chen (2002) for details). and others

◮ Modifying test mass dynamics to suppress displacement noise, for

example Optical Bar (an effective oscillator)(Braginsky et. al (1997, 1999)).

Quantum Noise in Mirror

In our work (Lee et al (2013)),

◮ We try to find out a fundamental mechanism to establish the

correlation between Shot Noise (intrinsic quantum fluctuations of light sources) and Radiation Pressure fluctuations (induced noise due to the movement of a mirror) for reducing the net noise effect that might need to mix the incident field with the reflected field from the mirror.

◮ We provide a consistent approach (quantum field theory) that on the

  • ne hand naturally incorporates all sources of noise on the mirror

from the quantum field and (manipulated) quantum field vacuum fluctuations as well, and on the other hand allows us to derive a dynamical equation to account for backreaction effects from the (incident) quantum field to the mirror in a consistent manner. We will give an example!!

Quantum Noise in Mirror

We consider that a single mirror with perfect reflection is illuminated by a massless quantum scalar field propagating along the z direction that gives motion of the mirror. The mirror of mass m and area A is originally placed at the z = L plane. Thus, the boundary condition on the field evaluated at the mirror surface can be expressed in the specific form: φ(x, z = L + q(t), t) = 0 , where q(t) is the displacement along the z-direction from its original position at z = L.

The idea

The model

The approximate solution to the field equation subject to the boundary condition if we assume slow motion ( ˙ q ≪ 1) is that φ = φ+ + φ− , where the positive (negative) energy solution φ+ (φ−) is respectively given by (Unruh 1982) φ+(x, z, t; L + q(t)) =

The idea

The force acting on the mirror is given by the area integral of the z − z component of the stress tensor in terms of the field operators: F(t) =

  • A

dx Tzz(x, z = L, t) , where Tzz = 1 2

  • (∂tφ)2 + (∂zφ)2 − (∂xφ)2 − (∂yφ)2

SLIDE 8

The idea

Here we assume that the scalar particle detection is based upon the processes of stimulated absorption by the detector due to the coupling between the scalar field and the monopole moment of the detector. The transition rate between states of the detector can be given by P(E1 → E2(E1 < E2)) =| E2 | monopole operator | E1 |2 ×Πφ(E2 − E1) . The response function is defined as Πφ(E) = δ(E − ω0)

  • dtφ−(x)φ+(x)α ,

where we have assumed that the incident field is in a single-mode coherent state, α, with frequency ω0. Thus, the quantity of interest is obtained by further integration over the area located at an arbitrary z = z plane as IT(z0, t; q + L) = t dt′

  • dx I(x, z0, t′; q + L) ,

where I(x) = φ−(x)φ+(x) .

slide-9
SLIDE 9

The idea

The measurement of IT(z0, t; q + L) is to measure the effective distance between the mirror and detector. Thus, the variation of I(z0, t; q + L) under small q approximation can be approximated by ∆IT(z0, t; q + L) = ∆IT(z0, t; L) + ∆q(t − (L − z0))∂LIT(z0, t; L)α +∆∂LIT(z0, t; L)q(t − (L − z0))α (1) The overall uncertainty of the effective distance can be defined as, ∆z = ∆I(z0, t; q + L) | ∂LI(z0, t; L) α| (2) The normalization factor ∂LI(z0, t; L) α is to measure the change of I(z0, t) due to variation of the mirror’s position.

The idea

They respectively come from the shot noise (sn) contribution associated with intrinsic fluctuations of the incident coherent fields, and the contributions of radiation pressure fluctuations (rp) and modified field fluctuations (mf), both of which are induced by the mirror’s motion, ∆z2sn = ∆I 2(z0, t; L) α ∂LI(z0, t; L) 2

The square of the position uncertainty

To compute the square of the position uncertainty, we may use the follow identity: φ1φ2φ3φ4 = : φ1φ2φ3φ4 : + : φ1φ2 : φ3φ40+ : φ1φ3 : φ2φ40 + : φ1φ4 : φ2φ30+ : φ2φ3 : φ1φ40+ : φ2φ4 : φ1φ30 + : φ3φ4 : φ1φ20 + φ1φ20φ3φ40 + φ1φ30φ2φ40 + φ1φ40φ2φ30 , The first term is fully normal ordered term, the next six terms are cross terms and the final three terms are pure vacuum terms. For a coherent state, φ1φ2φ3φ4α − φ1φ2αφ3φ4α = : φ1φ3 :αφ2φ40 + cross terms + φ1φ20φ3φ40 + pure vacuum terms The fully normal terms cancel. However, cross terms and pure vacuum terms involve quantum field vacuum fluctuations, and may give singularity as the fields in the end will be evaluated in the same point, and the finite results can be obtained by finding its principle values.

The influence from the quantum field is expected to give an effect to the velocity uncertainty of the particle (Lee et. al.(2012)). The velocity dispersion of a nonrelativistic particle due to electromagnetic field fluctuations under the dipole approximation is expressed as ∆v2
