Large and extremely low loss: the unique challenges of gravitational wave mirrors

Résumé

This paper describes the making of large mirrors for laser interferometer gravitational wave detectors. These optics, working in the near infrared, are among the best optics ever created and played a crucial role in the first direct detection of gravitational waves from black holes or neutron star fusions.
