The measurements presented in this paper were performed with the 4-km detector at the LIGO Livingston Observatory using a novel squeezed light source. Haocun Yu performed all of the measurements. Haocun Yu and L.M. carried out the analysis of the data. M. Tse, Haocun Yu and N.K. built and commissioned the squeezed-light sources. L.B. led the squeezed-light upgrade of the LIGO detectors, involving contributions from a large number of people within the LIGO Laboratory, the Australian National University and other members of the LIGO Scientific Collaboration. N.M. led the experimental campaign to measure sub-SQL quantum noise in the Advanced LIGO detector. Haocun Yu, L.M., M. Tse, L.B. and N.M. contributed directly to the preparation of the manuscript.
