This is a fully UHV compatible flexure joint-based optical manipulator. It allows precision, two-axis manipulator of optics in a vacuum.
Features and benefits
High resolution and stability
The system offers ultra-precise manipulation with < 0.1 micro radian stepsize
The rotation axis in the middle of the optics
Easy alignment of the optical setups
Motors, cabling and moving parts are below the optics
Possibility to easily separate the beam transport from mechanical and electrical parts. Easy cable management with no obstruction to the laser beam path.
Optical mounts are on top of the manipulator
Almost any shape of optics can be accommodated offering and unified solution for larger systems. Standard mirror mounts with coarse manual adjustment can be mounted on top to extend the range.
Minimal “cross-talk”
Independent movement in both axes
Very compact size
Allows building compact optical setups
The position is maintained even when the motors are powered down
Micro stepping function of motors is not used and therefore alignment is always maintained
Compactible with ultrahigh vacuum level (dependent on the motor used)
Can be used in demanding UHV ultraclean setups
Specification
- x-axis resolution 0.1 micro radians
- y-axis resolution 0.084 micro radians
- Range 90,000 steps (9 milliradians)
- Optics size up to 4”
