Thermo-optic noise in coated mirrors for high-precision optical measurements [PDF]
Thermal fluctuations in the coatings used to make high-reflectors are becoming significant noise sources in precision optical measurements and are particularly relevant to advanced gravitational wave detectors. There are two recognized sources of coating

Coating thermal noise for arbitrary shaped beams [PDF]
Advanced LIGO's sensitivity will be limited by coating noise. Though this noise depends on beam shape, and though nongaussian beams are being seriously considered for advanced LIGO, no published analysis exists to compare the quantitative thermal noise ...

A high speed truly random number generator based on thermal noise oscilltor
A truly random number generator based on thermal noise was proposed, and the resistance thermal noise was used as the noise source of the low frequency clock. It uses two independent working relative relationship between high and low frequency oscillator

A comparsion of force sensors for atomic force microscopy based on quartz tuning forks and length extensional resonators [PDF]
The force sensor is key to the performance of atomic force microscopy (AFM). Nowadays, most AFMs use micro-machined force sensors made from silicon, but piezoelectric quartz sensors are applied at an increasing rate, mainly in vacuum.

Suppression of extraneous thermal noise in cavity optomechanics [PDF]
Extraneous thermal motion can limit displacement sensitivity and radiation pressure effects, such as optical cooling, in a cavity-optomechanical system. Here we present an active noise suppression scheme and its experimental implementation.

Deviation from the normal mode expansion in a coupled graphene-nanomechanical system [PDF]
We optomechanically measure the vibrations of a nanomechanical system made of a graphene membrane suspended on a silicon nitride nanoresonator. When probing the thermal noise of the coupled nanomechanical device, we observe a significant deviation from ...
