STREGA WP1/M1 mirror substrates

STREGA WP1/M1 mirror substrates. Scientific motivation: Mechanical dissipation from dielectric mirror coatings is predicted to be a significant source of thermal noise for advanced detectors. Coatings must also be of low optical loss. Main workpackage outcomes/long term aim:
