Information-Measuring Complex for Registration High Frequency Gravitational Waves

Abstract

The information-measuring complex designed to register high-frequency fluctuations of the space-time metric and its main elements are described in paper. The complex is based on a Fabry-Perot interferometer with highly reflective mirrors and a two-meter resonator. A solid-state Nd: YAG laser with a wavelength λ = 1064 nm is used for pumping. To read the signal, an InGaAs receiver DET10N2, with a working spectral range of 500-1700 nm and an active region of 0.8 mm2, is applied. Using the developed complex, experimental studies of signal registration at readout frequencies of 1 MHz and 20 MHz were carried out. The graphs of signal fluctuations in time and the spectra constructed from them are given.
