Diffractive gratings in high-precision interferometry for gravitational wave detection
Einstein’s Theory of General Relativity describes gravity as the curvature of space-time and predicts gravitational waves. Laser interferometric gravitational wave detectors attempt to observe the strain gravitational waves exert on space-time, which is obscured by seismic, thermal and quantum among...
