引力波探测是一项重大国际前沿科技研究, 对探索许多基础科学问题具有重大意义, 然而引力波探测装置的建设面临着极大的技术挑战. 山西大学提出利用废弃地下矿井, 建设臂长为10 km、灵敏度达10 –24Hz –1/2的地基引力波探测装置的建设计划. 理论上, 等臂迈克尔逊干涉仪的灵敏度不受光源噪声的限制. 但是实际的激光干涉仪受臂腔线宽差异、腔镜反射率差异、腔镜质量差异、腔内功率差异等因素限制, 灵敏度依赖于激光源的指标. 本文定量分析了激光源指标参数对干涉仪灵敏度的影响, 并从地基引力波探测装置的设计灵敏度出发, 对激光源的波长、振幅噪声、频率噪声、光束指向噪声和基模纯度提出具体要求. 该分析为建设我国的地基引力波探测装置(预期灵敏度达国际上第三代探测器水平)奠定了激光源噪声分析和干涉仪指标分解等方面的坚实基础.Gravitational waves (GWs), predicted by the general relativity of Albert Einstein, are ripples in space-time caused by massive accelerating objects. Since the first direct observation of GWs in 2015, more and more binary black hole mergers and neutron star merger were detected by the laser interferometer gravitational-wave observatory (LIGO) and the Virgo interferometric detector. The construction of the third-generation (3G) gravitational wave detector(GWD), whose sensitivity is ten times that of the second-generation (2G) GWD (Advanced LIGO and Virgo), can not only push the gravitational wave astronomy towards the edge of the observable universe, but also test the fundamental laws of physics and study the nature of matter. By utilizing the abandoned underground mines, Shanxi university proposes to construct a 3G ground-based gravitational wave detector with an arm length of 10 km and a strain sensitivity of 10 –24Hz –1/2, improving the location accuracy of wave source by participating in the global GWD network. The construction of 3G GWD has many technical challenges, including ultrahigh large-scale vacuum system, ultrastable seismic isolation system, high-precision control system, high-quality laser and quantum source. Theoretically, the sensitivity of GWD with equal arm length is not limited by the laser source noise. However, in the actual scenario, the sensitivity is limited by the differences in arm length, arm cavity linewidth, arm reflectivity, arm mass, arm power, and the laser parameters. In this work, based on the design sensitivity (10 –24Hz –1/2) of dual-recycled Fabry-Perot Michelson interferometer, we propose the requirements for an ultra low-noise laser, including wavelength, amplitude noise, frequency noise, beam pointing noise and fundamental mode purity. The results show that in order to achieve the design sensitivity at the Fourier frequency of 100 Hz, the wavelength of the laser source should be 1.5 μm, the output power should be higher than 200 W, the amplitude noise should be better than 10 –8Hz –1/2, and the frequency noise should be better than 100 Hz/Hz 1/2. To achieve the sensitivity of 10 –24Hz –1/2at 10 Hz analysis frequency, the requirements for the amplitude and frequency noise of the laser source are much more stringent. This study lays a solid foundation for the analysis of laser source noise and the decomposition of interferometer indexes .
