Abstract
The Adaptive Collimation System (ACS) is a closed-loop control system that can monitor and correct collimator jaw straightness deviations. Key to the operation of the ACS is a fibre-based interferometric strain measurement system mounted in the jaws that can detect straightness deviations. This system utilises spectral interferometry to interrogate multiple strain sensitive intrinsic Fabry-Perot interferometer (IFPI) cavities that can detect localised thermal and vibratory deformations within the jaw structure and allow for their correction. This paper outlines the operation of the fibre-based measurement system, construction and integration challenges, both environmental and mechanical. Finally, preliminary experimental results are described which indicate the system is sufficiently sensitive to observe a second order response from a 1.5 µm first order displacement (bend) of the jaw.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
