Abstract
To minimize thermal noise in gravitational-wave detectors high mechanical quality factors are required for the suspended test masses. Monolithic suspensions are proposed for advanced detectors because of their low losses in all mechanical modes. We investigated the influence of preparing these suspensions on internal Q's of suspended substrates.
