- The Advanced LIGO instruments were built from decades of Research and Development in the LIGO Scientific Collaboration. Freise worked on several crucial aspects of Advanced LIGO technology, in particular the development of a table-top demonstration of the Length Sensing and Control scheme responsible for the readout of the gravitational-wave channel which directly influenced Advanced LIGO's detector design, enabling the first detections of gravitational waves.
