Several km-scale gravitational-wave detectors have been constructed worldwide. These instruments combine a number of advanced technologies to push the limits of precision length measurement. The core devices are laser interferometers of a new kind; developed from the classical Michelson topology these interferometers integrate additional optical elements, which significantly change the properties of the optical system. Much of the design and analysis of these laser interferometers can be performed using well-known classical optical techniques; however, the complex optical layouts provide a new challenge. In this review, we give a textbook-style introduction to the optical science required for the understanding of modern gravitational wave detectors, as well as other high-precision laser interferometers. In addition, we provide a number of examples for a freely available interferometer simulation software and encourage the reader to use these examples to gain hands-on experience with the discussed optical methods.

“…Here we will discuss two realizations, both found as prototypes in the early papers of [11,69], but later gradually deformed into the shape of km-scale laser interferometers [12][13][14]. A possible Michelson variant is shown in Fig.…”

“…There will be no associated back action, in contrast to the case of measuring non-conserved quantities. For a free mass, the conserved quantity is the momentum (speed), and it can be measured, e.g., by adopting speed-meter configurations [11][12][13][14][15]. For a high-frequency mechanical oscillator, the conserved quantities are the mechanical quadratures X 1 and X 2 , which are defined by the equations:…”

“…Having the ability to vary this readout phase provides an extra degree of freedom for optimising the quantum noise-to-signal ratio for gravitational wave signals. This is an assumed feature in some quantum non-demolition schemes [41,39] which introduce new methods for reducing the quantum noise [137,99,98,51,52]. Up to this point we have only considered pure vacuum noise and linear optical effects, both of which are valid approximations for previous generations of gravitational wave detectors.…”
