Approaches of frequency-dependent squeezing for the low frequency detector of Einstein Telescope (2404.15012v1)

Abstract: The quantum noise in gravitational-wave detectors can be suppressed in a broadband by frequency-dependent squeezing. It usually requires one large scale filter cavity and even two, for example in the low frequency detector of Einstein Telescope, which is a detuned dual recycling Fabry-Perot Michelson interferometer. In this paper, we study the feasibility of replacing two filter cavities with a coupled-cavity, aiming to reduce the optical losses with less number of optics. It turns out this approach is only theoretically valid, however, the required parameters of the optics don't support practical implementation, which is consistent with the results in [Phys. Rev. D {\bf 101}, 082002 (2020)]. Furthermore, we investigate the viability of utilizing EPR squeezing to eliminate either one or two filter cavities in Einstein Telescope. It turns out EPR squeezing would allow to eliminate one filter cavity, and can potentially improve the detector sensitivity with the allowance of higher input squeezing level, benefiting from the longer length of the arm cavity which serves as one of the filter cavities for frequency-dependent squeezing.
