  • Building blocks for future detectors: Silicon test masses and 1550 nm laser light 
    Schnabel, Roman; Britzger, M.; Brückner, F.; Burmeister, O.; Danzmann, Karsten; Dück, J.; Eberle, Tobias; Friedrich, Daniel; Lück, Harald; Mehmet, Moritz; Nawrodt, Ronny; Steinlechner, S.; Willke, Benno (Bristol : IOP Publishing Ltd., 2010)
    Current interferometric gravitational wave detectors use the combination of quasi-monochromatic, continuous-wave laser light at 1064 nm and fused silica test masses at room temperature. Detectors of the third generation, ...
  • Lateral deformation and defect resistance of compacted silica glass: Quantification of the scratching hardness of brittle glasses 
    Sawamura, Shigeki; Limbach, René; Behrens, Harald; Wondraczek, Lothar (Amsterdam : Elsevier, 2018)
    Human interaction with multimedia devices occurs predominantly over inorganic glass surfaces. Scratch-induced damage is a primary limitation in the suitability of brittle glasses for this purpose. However, neither truly ...
  • Long-period gratings in highly germanium-doped, single-mode optical fibers for sensing applications 
    Schlangen, Sebastian; Bremer, Kort; Zheng, Yulong; Böhm, Sebastian; Steinke, Michael; Wellmann, Felix; Neumann, Jörg; Roth, Bernhard; Overmeyer, Ludger (Basel : MDPI AG, 2018)
    Long-period fiber gratings (LPGs) are well known for their sensitivity to external influences, which make them interesting for a large number of sensing applications. For these applications, fibers with a high numerical ...
  • The status of GEO 600 
    Strain, Kenneth A.; Allen, B.; Aufmuth, P.; Aulbert, C.; Babak, S.; Balasubramanian, R.; Barr, B.W.; Berukoff, S.; Bunkowski, A.; Cagnoli, Gianpietro; Cantley, C.A.; Casey, M.M.; Chelkowski, S.; Churches, D.; Cokelaer, T.; Colacino, C.N.; Crooks, David R.; Cutler, C.; Danzmann, Karsten; Davies, R.; Dupuis, Rejean J.; Elliffe, E.; Fallnich, Carsten; Franzen, A.; Freise, A.; Gossler, S.; Grant, A.; Grote, H.; Grunewald, S.; Harms, J.; Heinzel, Gerhard; Heng, Ik S.; Hepstonstall, A.; Heurs, Michèle; Hewitson, M.; Hild, S.; Hough, James; Itoh, Y.; Jones, R.; Huttner, S.H.; Kawabe, K.; Killow, Christian; Koetter, K.; Krishnan, B.; Leonhardt, V.; Lück, Harald; Machenschalk, B.; Malec, M.; Mercer, R.A.; Messenger, Christopher; Mohanty, S.; Mossavi, Kasem; Mukherjee, S.; Murray, P.; Nagano, S.; Newton, G.P.; Papa, M.A.; Perreur-Lloyd, M.; Pitkin, M.; Plissi, M.V.; Quetschke, V.; Re, Virginia; Reid, S.; Ribichini, L.; Robertson, D.I.; Robertson, Norna A.; Romano, J.D.; Rowan, Sheila; Ruediger, Albrecht; Sathyaprakash, Bangalore S.; Schilling, R.; Schnabel, R.; Schutz, B.F.; Seifert, F.; Sintes, A.M.; Smith, J.R.; Sneddon, Peter H.; Taylor, I.; Taylor, R.; Thuering, A.; Ungarelli, Carlo; Vahlbruch, H.; Vecchio, Alberto; Veitch, J.; Ward, Harry; Weiland, U.; Welling, Herbert; Williams, P.; Willke, Benno; Winkler, Walter; Woan, Graham; Zawischa, Ivo (Bellingham, WA : SPIE, 2004)
    The GEO 600 laser interferometer with 600 m armlength is part of a worldwide network of gravitational wave detectors. GEO 600 is unique in having advanced multiple pendulum suspensions with a monolithic last stage and in ...
