Optomechanical characterization of acoustic modes in a mirror
T. Briant, P. F. Cohadon, A. Heidmann, M. Pinard
abstract: We present an experimental study of the internal mechanical vibration modes
of a mirror. We determine the frequency repartition of acoustic resonances via
a spectral analysis of the Brownian motion of the mirror, and the spatial
profile of the acoustic modes by monitoring their mechanical response to a
resonant radiation pressure force swept across the mirror surface. We have
applied this technique to mirrors with cylindrical and plano-convex geometries,
and compared the experimental results to theoretical predictions. We have in
particular observed the gaussian modes predicted for plano-convex mirrors.
