Optimization of Quantum Noise in Space Gravitational-Wave Antenna DECIGO with Optical-Spring Quantum Locking Considering Mixture of Vacuum Fluctuations in Homodyne Detection
Quantum locking using optical spring and homodyne detection has been devised to reduce the quantum noise that limits the sensitivity of the DECIGO, a space-based gravitational-wave antenna in the frequency band around 0.1 Hz for the detection of primordial gravitational waves. The reduction in the u...

To accurately evaluate the effectiveness of this method, this paper considers a detection mechanism that takes into account the influence of vacuum fluctuations on homodyne detection. In addition, an advanced signal processing method is devised to efficiently utilize signals from each photodetector, and design parameters for this configuration are optimized for the quantum noise. Our results show that this method is effective in reducing quantum noise, despite the detrimental impact of vacuum fluctuations on its sensitivity. |
