Toward a quantum enhanced holometer: preliminary results of a power-recycled 2D optical cavity at INRIM

In this paper we describe the preliminary results obtained at INRiM laboratories toward realizing a couple of correlated power-recycled Michelson interferometers. This system is the first step toward the realization of a quantum-enhanced holometer.
