Overview

• Motivation

• Material Properties– thermal properties– mechanical properties

• Thermal Noise Issues for ET

• Summary

GWADW2010 Kyoto/Japan #2/54

Motivation

• ET will need a radical change in the materials in order to achieve the sensitivity goals:

– suspensions,– test mass materials,– coatings,– optical materials

• Additionally, going towards cryogenics temperatures will dramatically change material properties additional degree of freedom.

• The new material has to be compared to the best optical material currently available at room temperture!

Material Properties – Thermal Conductivity in Crystals

GWADW2010 Kyoto/Japan

• typically 3 zones:

– higher temperatures: TC is limited by phonon-phonon scattering– lower temperatures: mean free path of phonons increases,

scattering at impurities becomes important

– high purity samples: at very low temperatures the sample geometry becomes important (scattering of phonons at the sample surface limitation of TC)

Material Properties – Thermal conductivity of Silicon

experimental results (double-log scale!):

“recommended curve”(< 1014 cm-3 boron, approx.1 mg B in 1 t Si)

increasing impurity concentration (scatteringof phonons on impurities)

smaller structures + impurities(~ 1/L term)see Callaway 1961 or Casimir 1938

[Touloukian]

• in high purity silicon the different silicon isotopes take the role as scatter centers (-> impurities)

• natural Si has 3 stable isotopes:– 92% Si-28– 5% Si-29– 3% Si-30

• they cause small local changes in the lattice due to their different atom masses effect is small

• however, concentration is very large compared to typical impurity concentrations (ppm range)

• it is possible to enrich/purify silicon

• isotopic pure silicon shows a much larger thermal conductivity in the peak region compared to standard semiconductor grade silicon

• 99.8% Si-28:TC ~ 10x larger

• disadvantage:price ~ 1000 US$/gsemiconductor grade ~ 500 US$/kg

Mechanical Properties – Mechanical Loss of Materials

Nawrodt 05/2010

Mechanical Properties – Surface loss

• sudden change of chemistry at the surface end of periodicity of crystal lattice remaining defect in perfect single crystals

• it was shown that the surface loss can be influenced by proper treatments (heating, passivation, etc.)

• however, most of these changes are not stable and the surface loss gets back to the initial level after hours

Nawrodt 05/2010

Mechanical Properties – Impurities

• imperfection in crystals can change their states (moving, rotation, …)

• example: crystalline quartz (SiO2)

modelled as double well potential

Mechanical Properties – Impurities in Silicon

• doping concentration is variable lowest possible value will used

• most serious impurity in Si is oxygen from the growing process (electronically not active nearly no support from

semiconductor industry!)• two growing processes:

from melt from solidCzochralski-process Floating-Zone-process

O-concentration: 1018 cm-3 O-concentration: 1014 cm-3

max. dia. in some years max. dia. in some years~ 45 … 50 cm ~ 30 … 35 cm

Mechanical Properties – Phonon-Phonon-Interaction

• fundamental process in crystalline solids cannot be avoided• two mechanisms:

– high temperatures / high frequenciesdirect interaction of one phonon with another one

(Landau-Rumer-process)

– low temperatures / low frequencies

elastic mode (low frequency phonon) changes the lattice change of the equlibrium distribution of phonons

redistribution needs energy loss

(Akhiezer-process)

sensitivity goal can be reached, additional „help“ is needed at low frequencies (artificial lowering of pendulum frequency needed – actively/passivly)

Cooling Issues through the suspension

• cooling through fibre• target temperature: below 22 K

• thermal bath:– technically limited to 2-5 K – no huge advantage to go for 2 K from a thermal conductivity point

of view (limitation through geometry, low thermal conductivity at T < 10 K)

– however, 2 K allows use of suprafluid helium with much reduced mechanical disturbances

Cooling Issues through the suspension

• maximum cooling power is very low (L = 1m, Tbath = 2 K, 4 fibres)

Cooling Issues through the suspension

• highest possible thermal conductivity needed

• investigation optical absorption in silicon (at 1550 nm unknown)

• strong reduction of introduced thermal load needed

– reduction of incident laser power(Xylophon concept, 2 detectors, low frequency detector with

low laser power e.g. 18 kW)

– very carefull dealing with scattered light needed (additional heating of test masses)

Conclusion

• crystalline materials are candidate materials for 3rd generation detectors

• cooling necessary to reduce thermo-elastic noise

• high thermal conductivity is used to extract heat, however minimum thermal load should have very high priority (scatter!)

• thermal noise can be reduced below the requirements with reasonable materials (silicon) and R&D (loss measurments, optics absorption, coating research,…)
