Despite recent work 1 showing that thermo-elastic damping in bulk sapphire is expected to produce a higher level of thermal noise at low frequencies than previously predicted using loss measurements made at several 10's of kHz 2,3, for typical designs of advanced interferometers thermal noise from sapphire test masses can still be lower than that expected from fused silica over portions of the frequency range relevant for gravitational wave detection 4. For this to be the case, excess mechanical losses associated with suspending the test masses or coating them as mirrors must be suitably low.
