Higher order laser modes in gravitational wave detectors LIGO-G1401391-v1 Higher order laser modes in gravitational wave detectors Koji Arai – LIGO Laboratory / Caltech

Higher order laser modes Longitudinal sensing and control Plane wave calculation was sufficient Alignment, mode matching, mode selection higher order modes need to be taken into account

Eigenmodes of the lasers Solution of Maxwell’s equation for propagating electromagnetic wave under the paraxial approximation => Laser beams change their intensity distributions and wavefront shapes as they are propagated => Any laser beam can be decomposed and expressed as a unique linear combination of eigenmodes In this sense, a (given) set of eigenmodes are ortho-normal basis

Hermite Gaussian modes HG modes (TEM mods) : one example of the eigenmodes A. E. Siegman, Lasers, University Science Books, Mill Valley, CA (1986) H. Kogelnik and T. Li, Appl. Opt. 5 (1966) 1550-1567 Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transverse_mode

Any beam can be decomposed... Astronaut World cup football

Hermite Gaussian modes (TEM modes) Trivia There are infinite sets of HG modes A TEM00 mode for an HG modes can be decomposed into infinite modes for other HG modes The complex coefficients of the mode decomposition is invariant along the propagation axis Where ever the decomposition is calculated, the coefficients are unique. No matter how a beam is decomposed, the laser frequency stays unchanged! (sounds trivial but frequently misunderstood)

Useful to note Beam size at z Wavefront curvature at z Gouy phase Rayleigh range cf. Huygens’ principle

Gouy phase shift Gouy phase shift: Relative Phase shift between the transverse modes Different optical phase of the modes for the same distance => Different resonant freq in a cavity (will see later) “Near field” and “Far field”

Decomposition of misaligned modes Lateral shift: Rotational shift: K. Kawabe Ph.D thesis: http://t-munu.phys.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp/theses/kawabe_d.pdf

“Cavity” eigenmodes TEM modes with matched wavefront RoC A. E. Siegman, Lasers, University Science Books, Mill Valley, CA (1986)

“Cavity” eigenmodes Due to different Gouy phase shifts between TEM modes, their resonant frequencies are different fFSR = c/2L fTMS = fFSR x ζ/(2 pi) ζ: cavity round trip Gouy phase shift A. E. Siegman, Lasers, University Science Books, Mill Valley, CA (1986)

Optical resonator stability g-factors Stability criteria A. E. Siegman, Lasers, University Science Books, Mill Valley, CA (1986)

Optical resonator stability General case The cavity is stable when this quantity ζ exists T1300189 “On the accumulated round-trip Gouy phase shift for a general optical cavity” Koji Arai https://dcc.ligo.org/LIGO-T1300189

Cavity alignment To match the input beam axis and the cavity axis Corresponds to the suppression of TEM01/10 mode in the beam with regard to the cavity mode 4 d.o.f.: (Horizontal, Vertical) x (translation, rotation) Note: it is most intuitive to define the trans/rot at the waist To move the mirrors or to move the beam?

Cavity mode matching To match the waist size and position of the input beam to these of the cavity Corresponds to the suppression of TEM02/11/20 mode in the beam with regard to the cavity mode

Angular global control Wave Front Sensing Misalignment between the incident beam and the cavity axis The carrier is resonant in the cavity The reflection port has Prompt reflection of the modulation sidebands Prompt reflection of the carrier Leakage field from the cavity internal mode spatially distributed amplitude modulation no signal E Morrison et al Appl Optics 33 5041-5049 (1994)

Angular global control Wave Front Sensing WFS becomes sensitive when there is an angle between the wave fronts of the CA and SB Can detect rotation and translation of the beam separately, depending on the “location” of the sensor Use lens systems to adjust the “location” of the sensors. i.e. Gouy phase telescope Sensitive at the far field Sensitive at the near field

Angular global control Frequent mistake: What we want to adjust is the accumulated Gouy phase shift! Not the one for the final mode!

Angular global control aLIGO implementation: Separate Gouy phase of a set of two WFSs with 90 deg

aLIGO angular control Combine WFS, DC QPD, digital CCD cameras
