ABSTRACT
In the space gravitational wave detection, numerous laser interferometer strategies have been proposed to reduce the complexity of traditional heterodyne interferometers. Previously, we proposed a novel interferometric strategy and simulated its effectiveness, called CAM (constant amplitude modulation) heterodyne interferometry. Compared with other methods, the CAM can introduce the OPT (optical pilot tone) for the common-mode noise rejection. In this paper, we present the first, to our knowledge, experimental verification of this technique. The experimental results indicate that OPT can successfully eliminate sampling jitter, enabling the corrected noise to meet the requirements of space gravitational wave detection. This provides a new approach for further optical optimization and noise elimination in the future.
