In the past 10 years, I focused on the big G measurement with the time-of-swing method by using high-Q silica fibers in the cave laboratory in Huazhong University of Science and Technology. The main innovations include: 1). Coated silica fibers with Q factor of 5*104are used in the experiment to reduce the anelastic effect. The silica fibers are pulled from 3-mm-diameter rods using oxygen-natural gas flame by hand. The fiber surface is coated with germanium and bismuth films with thickness of about 10 nm to make it ground; 2). The local background gravitational gradient is measured and then compensated with about 1 tons of lead blocks; 3). The coating effect of the pendulum is reduced by using aluminum coating layer to replace the Au/Cu coating layer; 4). The magnetic damper is optimized and its effect contributed to the value of G is reduced; 5). The updated three-point mounts are used to support the spherical source masses to improve the position stability and repeatability; 6). The measurements of G are conducted simultaneously on two sets of apparatus to verify the system effects related to the device. After several years of effort, the measurement of G has been performed with four silica fibers on two apparatus. We obtain seven values of G, which are consistent with each other. The weighted mean value of G is 6.674184(78)´10−11m3kg−1s−2with a combined relative uncertainty of 11.64 ppm.
