Optical Lever Lasers: To Fix or Not to Fix!

Document #:

LIGO-G1500071-v2

Document type:

G - Presentations (eg Graphics)

Abstract:

The diode lasers currently used in optical levers have power glitches which lead to broadband noise in suspension damping. This is a discussion of possible ways to improve their performance and/or replace them with better lasers.
