G D LIGO Commissioning Update LSC Meeting, March 16, 2004 Peter Fritschel

G D LIGO I2 S3: peak sensitivities

G D LIGO I3 S3: reliability & stability

G D LIGO I4 Major Goals and Tasks After S3  Sensitivity  Operate at high power: achieve designed optical gain  Laser  Thermal compensation system (TCS)  Output mode cleaner (OMC)  Manage noise in auxiliary degrees-of-freedom  Finish acoustic mitigation  Clean up electronics: RFI mitigation  Reliability & Stability  Seismic retrofit at LLO: HEPI  Auto-alignment system: all degrees-of-freedom, at full bandwidth  Address causes of lock-loss

G D LIGO I5  Recall: significant improvements between S2 & S3  Problem: acoustical vibrations of optical elements in the output beam path  No acoustic peaks left in S3 spectra  Acoustic enclosures around AS port sensing tables: ~10x reduction  Improvements and simplifications to beam sensing path: ~10x  Original goals: 100x-1000x reduction, reached for H1 5 Acoustic Mitigation

G D LIGO I6 Acoustic Mitigation (2)  Raise the bar at LHO: H1-H2 stochastic b.g. potential  H1 sensitivity now dominated by reflection port table: continue improvement/simplifications of this beam path  Reduce continuous sources: house or move electronics cabinets  New data on lower frequencies: seismic/acoustic  HVAC the main source: no easy improvements  Investigating ‘floating’ the detection tables on low-frequency mounts

G D LIGO I7 More environmental effects  Dust in table enclosures  Gets stirred up by entries, takes a while to settle down  Causes glitches when it falls through the beam  To be addressed with HEPA filters, and/or covers over the beam path Dust monitor at AS port table 1 day  HVAC in-duct heaters  Pulsing produces ~1 Hz sidebands around 60 Hz; couples magnetically to AS_Q

G D LIGO I8 Optical gain: “10 W” laser  Current input power levels H1H2L1Design Mode cleaner input 3.6 W3.7 W6 W8 W Recycling mirror input 2.3 W2.6 W3.6 W6 W  Plan  Get LWE lasers back up to spec: LWE may be able to rebuild for somewhat higher power, 10 W  W  Diagnose pre-mode cleaner loss (typically 10-15% lost)  Diagnose suspended mode cleaner loss (20-30% lost)  Input electro-optic modulators: reduce number from 3 to 1

G D LIGO I9 Thermal Compensation Over-heat Correction Inhomogeneous Correction Under-heat Correction CO 2 Laser ? ZnSe Viewport Over-heat pattern Inner radius = 4cm Outer radius =11cm  Cold power recycling cavity is unstable: poor buildup and mode shape for the RF sidebands  ITM thermal lens power of ~ diopters needed to achieve a stable, mode-matched cavity  intended to be produced by ~25 mW absorbed from 1μm beam ITM

G D LIGO I10 Two CO 2 lasers installed on H1 To ITM HR surface

G D LIGO I11 TCS on the power recycled Michelson: beam images at AS port No Heating 30 mW 60 mW 90 mW 120 mW 150 mW 180 mW Input beam Best match

G D LIGO I12 Full Interferometer Results A.Lock interferometer at 1 Watt B.Apply 45 mW Common central heating C.Increase to 60 mW D.Increase to 90 mW E. Turn off TCS Sideband power gain A B C D E Optical gain  AS_Q gain: increases by 40%  doesn’t increase as fast as expected  PRC & MICH (pick-off) gains increase by factor of 4  gain scales as (G SB ) 2

G D LIGO I13 Summary of TCS Results State GSB State 2 cold 7.0 State 2 hot (90 mW CO 2 ) 12.5 State 2 max (tRM / (1 - rRM rM rITM)) State 4 cold 13 State 4 warm (0.8W input) 16 State 4 hot (2.3W input, no TCS) 20 State 4 hot (0.8W input, 45mW CO2) 26.5 State 4 max (tRM / (1 - rRM rM))

G D LIGO I14 Output mode cleaner: motivation  Reduction of AS_I signal  Power in orthogonal phase limits the amount of power per AS port photodetector & AS_I servo is noisy  Produced by alignment fluctuations: TEM 01/10 modes would be removed by an OMC  Improvement in shot noise sensitivity  Reduction of noise-producing (higher-order mode) power  Potential saturation at 2f m at higher power

G D LIGO I15 OMC design overview Cavity finesse 30 (maximum mode suppression of 300x) Cavity round-trip path/bandwidth 10 cm / 100 MHz (keep short/wide to pass SBs on same resonance) Geometry Triangular ring cavity; fixed spacer with bonded mirrors g-parameterApprox. 0.4 Mounting & isolation In-vacuum, single stage suspension Locking and control PZT-mounted end mirror, dither lock in transmission

G D LIGO I16 OMC plans  GEO output mode cleaner a good fit for initial testing  On loan from GEO for several months  Installation and testing on H1  Beginning mid-April  Will be put into the beam path of one of the AS port detection PDs AS port beam 50/50 LSC PD PZT T = 10%

G D LIGO I17 Alignment Control  Continued incremental progress on WFS/QPDs …  Goals:  Sufficient gain/bandwidth to reduce power fluctuations to ~1%  Turn off optical lever angular control: too noisy  Manage WFS/QPD noise coupling to AS_Q  Status, H1 (post-S3 progress)  Bandwidth now at 2.2 Hz for all but one WFS: effect not fully characterized  Some noise reductions made, still an active issue  Initial alignment steps now fully automated  Upcoming  Controls software upgrade: sensor input matrix; compensate radiation torques; compensate for optical gain change  WFS feedback to mode cleaner mirrors  Beam centering …

G D LIGO I18 Beam centering  Transmission QPDs hold the beam position fixed at the ETMs  Need to independently find the right spot (w/in 1mm of center)  WFS control all mirror angles: only DOF left is the beam position in the corner  New servo:  Capture image of beam scatter from BS face  Image processing to determine position of beam center  Slow feedback to input telescope to fix BS beam position ON Pitch fb Sign fixed

G D LIGO I19 Auxiliary degrees-of-freedom: small coupling, but very noisy X-cplg to ASQ: X-cplg to ASQ: Excess noise

G D LIGO I20 Excess noise: optical gain modulation  Signal  (sideband field)·(length deviation) Intermodulation Effect of increasing the MICH bandwidth from 10Hz to 50Hz: > 10x lower noise at 40Hz > able to detect higher power pick-off beam for reduced shot noise Similar noise reduction for PRC, and for the WFS error signals Reduce these by increasing loop gain

G D LIGO I21 Impact on noise Low gain High gain

G D LIGO I22 Seismic retrofit at LLO  Currently ~2 weeks into installation  Recent best performance data from LASTI, on a HAM chamber:

G D LIGO I23 High-f noise bump: mystery solved  Modulation phase noise appears on demodulation signal (LO) too – no big deal  True at low frequencies, but mode cleaner pole shifts phase of modulation fields – doesn’t cancel out at higher frequencies  Solutions:  Low phase noise crystal oscillator  Pass LO through an electronic filter to equalize paths RF Oscillator phase noise Mechanism: possibly coupling through the DC AS_I signal

G D LIGO I24 Miscellaneous  New low-noise D-A converters from Freq. Devices Inc.  dB lower noise  New Faraday isolator for H2  Larger aperture to reduce clipping  Lower absorption for higher power operation  Photon calibrators  Reproducing first-article: in place for S4  Phase cameras on all interferometers  Introducing a reference field so that any field component can be mapped  Dual ETM transmission photodetectors  To handle larger dynamic range with higher power  Upgrade DAQ reflective memory network: higher capacity  Micro-seismic feedforward system at LHO

G D LIGO I25 Major Post-S3 Steps First ~6 months after S3 L1 ► Thermal lens studies ► Seismic upgrade: HEPI installation & commiss. ► Electronics rack relocation ► Thermal comp. H1 ► Manage noise in auxiliary degrees-of-freedom ►Thermal compensation trial ► Wideband WFS control ► Laser power increase ► Output mode cleaner ► Duty cycle H2► Wideband WFS control
