Ternary quarter wavelength coatings for gravitational wave detector mirrors: Design optimization via exhaustive search
Multimaterial optical coatings are a promising viable option to meet the challenging requirements (in terms of transmittance, absorbance, and thermal noise) of next-generation gravitational wave detector mirrors. In this paper we focus on ternary coatings consisting of quarter-wavelength-thick layer...
