Full textThe modelling and the control strategy for active optics of segmented mirrors are examined. The model has a moderate size due to the separation of the quasi-static behavior of the mirror (primary response) from the dynamic response (secondary, or residual response). The control strategy considers explicitly the primary response of the telescope through a singular value controller. The control-structure interaction is addressed with the general robustness theory of multivariable feedback systems, where the secondary response is considered as uncertainty.
Scaling laws allowing the extrapolation of the results obtained with existing 10m telescopes to future ELTs and even future larger telescopes are addressed and the most relevant parameters are highlighted. The study is illustrated with a set of examples of increasing sizes, up to 200 segments. This numerical study confirms that scaling laws, originally developed with simple analytical models, can be used in confidence in the preliminary design of large segmented telescopes.

The next generation of space telescopes will need to meet increasingly challenging science goals. For these new systems to meet resolution goals, the collecting area of the primary mirror will need to be increased. However, current space telescope designs are reaching their limits in terms of size and mass. Therefore, new systems will need to include technologies such as lightweight mirrors, segmented or sparse apertures and active optical control. Many of these technologies have no flight heritage, so determining what combinations of technologies will create favorable designs requires detailed modeling and analysis. This thesis examines the design of a lightweight mirror for an advanced space telescope for both dynamic performance and shape control. A parametric model of a rib-stiffened mirror is created in order to quickly analyze many different mirror geometries. This model is used to examine the homogeneous dynamics of the mirror to determine what geometry will maximize the ratio of stiffness to areal density. The mirror model is then used in a full dynamic disturbance-to-performance analysis so that system performance can be examined as a function of changes in the mirror geometry.
(cont.) Next, a quasi-static shape control algorithm is developed to control the mirror using in the presence of thermal disturbances. The traditional method of mirror shape control relies on feedback from 'a wavefront sensor in the optical path. A wavefront sensor reduces the amount of light available for image formation, which causes problems when viewing very dim objects. Therefore, this control algorithm uses feedback from sensors embedded in the primary mirror. Control algorithms using both strain gages and temperature sensors are developed and compared to determine which sensor type results in better performance. The shape control algorithm with temperature sensors is analyzed using the parametric rib-stiffened mirror model to determine what geometries are best for shape control. The dynamic analysis is combined with the thermal control analysis in order to determine what mirror geometries will be favorable for both of these problems.

Glass sheets with high surface quality and angular resolution of 5 arcsec are in demand for the International X-Ray Observatory. Several glass flattening techniques are presented in this thesis, including a method of thermally shaping individual sheets of glass using porous mandrels as air bearings developed at the Space Nanotechnology Lab. This method, a second generation slumping tool, eliminates the problems of sticking and dust particle-induced distortion that plague traditional slumping methods. A detailed mathematical model of the slumping process is developed, allowing prediction of final glass shape based on process parameters that include air supply pressure, imperfections on the mandrel surface, glass total thickness variations and gravity vector orientation. Simulations were conducted for a variety of scenarios to study the impact of apparatus tilt and pressure asymmetries on glass shape. Experiments to verify model findings are conducted under closed-loop control of pressure and apparatus tilt. Little improvement in repeatability is seen, suggesting that the error is due to unmodeled forces such as contact forces from the glass holding technique. Finally, the design process and fabrication of a third generation slumping tool is presented. In addition to scaling the design to accommodate larger flats, slumps are done horizontally to float the glass and minimize contact during the process. New capabilities of the tool also include active gap measurement and control, as well as plenum air temperature monitoring.

Lightweight, active mirrors are an enabling technology for large aperture, space-based optical systems. These mirrors have the potential to improve the optical resolution and sensitivity beyond what is currently possible. However, as with all technology development programs, there are remaining issues to be solved before such mirrors can be used in operational systems. As of yet, no efforts have been made to explore the design space or optimize the design of lightweight mirrors across operational environments and constraints. The extremely harsh launch environment is of particular concern because launch survival constraints could dictate aspects of the mirror design. Additionally, on-orbit optical performance, in terms of high spatial frequency wavefront error and low spatial frequency correctability, are extremely important aspects of mirror design. Due to the lack of heritage systems, the best designs for lightweight, active mirrors are not immediately apparent. Therefore, an integrated modeling methodology for technology development programs is developed. This framework uses model-based design and evolutionary models to guide the technology development program. This methodology is applied to the lightweight, active mirror systems of interest. The mirrors are modeled and analyzed in two distinct environments: on-orbit and during launch. The on-orbit model and analysis are presented, as well as the designs with the best optical performance, which tend to have many ribs and actuators. Additionally, a dynamic state-space model of the launch environment is developed. The designs that are most likely to survive launch have few ribs and actuators, directly in conflict with the best on-orbit designs. Launch load alleviation techniques, including techniques making use of the existing embedded actuators, are also implemented to increase the probability of launch survival. Finally, a fully integrated trade space analysis of designs is shown, along with families of designs that perform well with respect to different mission objectives. The integrated modeling approach allows for the seamless combination of the two analysis, as well as a way in which to determine the best performing designs. By using this approach, the model can be updated to include any new insights and to reflect the current state of the technology, making it useful throughout the life cycle of the program.

We have yet to create the ultimate interactive experience. Why is that so, and how can that change? How can we increase our chances of getting it right? Interactive, location-based experiences are a new genre and need a new way of thinking about designing them. We also need a better way of dealing with the sophistication of modem technology, enabling us to get to the heart of designing these new interactions. This thesis makes progress in this area by creating a classification system for the space of interactive location-based entertainment experiences. It begins to develop a theory of interactivity as it can be applied to this genre. The theory also guides the birth of a library of interactive design techniques and the development of a design approach as a series of steps and questions that must be answered to complete an experience. It is proposed that across a variety of experience types (games, rides, theater shows and museum installations), the design approach will be similar. It is also hypothesized that given one distinct hardware system, a range of different interactions can be explored. Furthermore, this thesis looks at how technology can be used to aid in the development process by designing a rapid development environment for prototyping new interactions. By establishing a new way of looking at the problem I hope to be able to reach the goal of creating compelling experiences. Through the construction of a new set of tools, this thesis details the fundamental elements of a location-based, interactive attraction and exposes all of the technical, practical and artistic issues that must be resolved to successfully complete and deploy them.

Full textThe observation of biological samples at a nanometer scale is currently a major topic for biology. In particular, X-ray microscopy in the water-window (between Oxygen and Carbon K-alpha edges, corresponding to a wavelength between 2.4 and 4.4 nm) is off remarkable interest since it enables the visualization of biological samples with a natural high absorption contrast and a high resolution thanks to the short working wavelength. Several such x-ray microscopes have already been developed and showed resolutions down to 12 nm. In this context, we develop at Laboratoire Charles Fabry a full field, near normal incidence mirror based X-ray microscope. The optical design of the microscope was studied and optimized in a first place. It is based on a Schwarzschild objective, with a rather long working distance so that the installation of the sample will be facilitated. The mirrors are to be coated with very short period multilayer coatings containing chromium and scandium. Several multilayer systems with sub-nanometer thick layers ere studied in order to obtain the highest reflectance possible near normal incidence at a wavelength near 3.14 nm. Those systems were Cr/Sc, Cr/B4C/Sc, CrN/Sc and CrN/B4C/Sc. A peak reflectance of 23% has been measured for CrN/B4C/Sc at an incidence angle lower than 5°

Full textDen digitala spelindustrin utvecklas snabbt i samband med teknologiska framsteg. Detta resulterar i förutsättningar för speldesigners att utveckla utförliga virtuella världar för deras spelare att utforska. Genom att erkänna den välutvecklade erfarenheten erhållen av arkitekter i deras arbete att konstruera världens samhällen, antar sig detta kandidatarbete tvärvetenskaplig forskning. Relationen mellan arkitektur och level design används här för att främja förståelsen för arkitektoniskt utrymme inom videospel som utspelar sig i första person. En textanalys är utförd på Mirror’s Edge Catalyst med syftet att undersöka olika möjligheter för arkitektur att bidra till narrativ inom spel. Denna analys aspirerar till att förhålla sig till målet av en prejudikatstudie som tillåter arkitekter att förstå och analysera komponenter inom en arkitektonisk komposition. Kandidatarbetet vägleds av forskningsfrågan ”Hur kan arkitektoniskt utrymme användas för att stödja ett narrativ i banor från första-persons videospel?”. Forskningen visar att den förväntade spelupplevelsen inom en bana styr den arkitektoniska kompositionen. Horisontella och vertikala ytor används för att definiera utrymme medan deras form och sammansättning ger plats åt banans narrativ. Det uppdelade utrymmet placeras sedan in i linjära eller centraliserade organisationer vilket styrker den narrativa upplevelsen som etableras. Under dessa organisationer placeras storslagen arkitektur, vilket ger upphov till scener vars syfte är att underlätta kommunikationen av fokuset inom narrativet.

Full textIn this thesis, design and performance analysis of a tunable optical delay line which employs pop-up MEMS micro-mirrors have been described. The delay paths which their lengths are in binary fashion are free-space based delay lines. Micro-mirrors operate as a switch to redirect the light through delay paths. One of the main characteristic of this design is to provide constant optical power loss for different delay times. Computer simulations have been shown to evaluate the performance of the system to different sources of misalignments.
The result of simulations suggests using correction mirrors in order to decrease the optical power loss due to misalignment. It has been also concluded that improvement of pop-up micro-mirrors as a main source of misalignment, will alleviate the performance remarkably.

This thesis presents the analysis and design of a small advanced fast steering mirror (sAFSM) for airborne and aerospace platforms. The sAFSM provides feedback-controlled articulation of two rotational axes for precision optical pointing. The design, useful for both disturbance rejection and high-speed scanning applications, incorporates a flux steering actuator with a ring core magnetic configuration. The novel magnetic concept enables a dramatic size reduction compared with heritage systems. The moving armature is supported with a combination of elastomer sheets and active position control. Local angular and mirror-normal displacement is sensed with integrated capacitive sensors. Analysis content includes specification of performance requirements based on a realistic deep-space laser communication mission, magnetic equivalent circuit and three-dimensional magnetostatic finite element analysis of the actuator, and a 3D structural optimization of the moving armature modal frequencies. The resulting design is one iteration removed from a flight -ready model. The sAFSM hardware is in fabrication, and anticipated performance exceeds 10 krad/s2 angular acceleration, 10 mrad range, and 9 kHz closed-loop bandwidth.

A micro deformable cylindrical mirror which is electrostatically actuated to perform line focusing has been successfully designed, analyzed, fabricated, and measured in this thesis. The bimetallic effect is utilized to generate the stress-induced bending of a bi-layer mirror structure, which successfully formed a cylindrical reflective surface and can focus incident light into a line at its focal length. Electrostatic force is used to attract the structure downward and thus to change the focal length of the mirror. Simulated results show that the mirror has a larger focal length under a larger driving voltages. The micro deformable cylindrical mirror is fabricated using surface micromachining and the experimental results indicate that the focal length of the mirror with a reflective area of 300-micron square is 1819.21 without driving voltage. The micro deformable cylindrical mirror can be used to make up a double cylindrical mirror device which can perform point focusing.

In this dissertation, two kinds of concave micro-mirrors are designed. The off-axis micro-mirror is designed based on ray tracing for the fabrication on silicon substrate using e-beam writer and inductively coupled plasma. The aspect ratios of the surface relief of the diffractive micro-lenses and the micro-mirrors are compared to reduce the fabrication difficulty for the identical optical function. The results show that compared with the micro-lenses in SiO2 and GaN, the micro-mirrors are preferred to be fabricated than micro-lenses if their numerical apertures are lower than 0.6 and 0.2, respectively. Free space echelle grating is designed for Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) system. It is based on the law of Rowland. It is a hybrid of a concave micro-mirror and blazed gratings. The design of the concave micro-mirror can be carried out on silicon substrate using e-beam writer and plasma etching .The blazed grating can be achieved by fine V-groove etching. We also demonstrate a novel method to mount micro-opto-electronic devices on a Si bench. Inductively Coupled Plasma ( ICP ) and KOH etching and are performed for carrying out this novel method. The Si-based component after through wafer etching was picked by the optical fibers and placed on the optical bench. This can not only make X, Y, Z, θ and the tilt directions precisely controlled but also be suitable for all components mounting on the optical bench.

This paper focuses on the design and manufacture of a micro-mirror, by means of Surface Micromachining, and the use of MENS to manufacture optical components of micro-mirror. The paper employs 8, 10, and 12 cantilever beams, which are gold-plated to act as the mirror’s reflective components. The curved mirror structure is created by overlapping two different materials of different expansion coefficients, which camber due to the residual stresses. The paper comprises both simulation and experimental analysis. The simulation employs of APILUX . APILUX is a design software package for the analysis of optics, which is used to simulate the cambering of the cantilever. Red laser and green laser were applied to mirror surface, where optic energy was lost due to reflection. Similarly, experimental measurements were made by applying the two lasers to the mirror surface, and using a optic energy apparatus to measure the loss of optic. This research method was developed in-house. The micro-mirror described may be used for any application that requires a reflective component.

In this paper, the design of the micro cross torsion mirror is examined by using simulation and experiment. Two types of the micro torsion mirror device can be obtained through the processes of fabrication. In the analysis of simulation, the design of micro torsion mirrors can be constructed and modes and related resonant frequencies can be obtained and compared by using the finite element softwares COMSOL and ANSYS. In the experimental measurement, the laser holographic and white-light stroboscopic interferometries are used. The torsion and bending full-field modes can be obtained when the micro device is excited at the resonant frequency. Results obtained from the analysis of white-light stroboscopic interferometries are used in the optimal design of the micro cross torsion mirror. The finite element model of the micro cross torsion mirror in ANSYS can be updated by minimized the error of resonant frequencies. The results show the finite element updated model can be obtained by changing the thickness, Young’s modulus, and Poisson’s ratio of the micro cross torsion mirror. Errors of resonant frequencies between experimental measurement and simulation with an updated model can be improved to 1﹪.

In this study, we designed and simulated characteristics of EUV multilayer mirrors by our developed program at National Chiao Tung University (NCTU) and commercial Essential Macleod software. In addition, we fabricated Mo/Si multilayer mirrors at Instrument Technology Research Center (ITRC) by the magnetic sputter system, and measured their reflectances at National Synchrotron Radiation Research Center (NSRRC) by the ultrahigh-vacuum EUV reflectometer and the mega EUV reflectometer. Ru/Mo/B4C/Si multilayer with Ru capping layer and Mo/Si-Ru/Si double layer were proposed, and the reflectances of the designed structures could achieve 75% with 54 stacks. Mo/Si multilayer mirrors with 10, 20, 30, and 40 stacks were fabricated. EUV reflectance measurements at NSRRC by the ultrahigh-vacuum EUV reflectometer and the mega EUV reflectometer were conducted, respectively. The highest reflectance of our samples is 42.2 % with 40 stacks at 13.4 nm measured by the mega EUV reflectometer. Finally, we applied AFM, TEM, and XPS for structure observation and analysis.

The Mirascope is an optical apparatus constructed by double concave mirrors,which is used to project a real image of a small object . In this study, we replaced the concave mirrors by Fresnel mirrors to reduce the system volume and to increase the flexibility in changing the image magnification. The Fresnel mirrors were calculated based on the theory of geometrical optics. The simulations were conducted using optical software, Tracepro. Finally, the calculated mirrors were manufactured by 3D printing. We have completed a Mirascope with the magnification exceeding 1.5. The Mirascope was constructed by two Fresnel mirrors with focal lengths of 60 and 90mm and an aperture of 35mm diameter, which were separated by a distance of 90mm. Compared with the conventional Mirascope, the proposed Mirascope is not only compact in size and weight, but also flexible in the image magnification, resulting into a variety application to 3D display.

In order to deliver extremely high bandwidth in a single fiber, the vision for future optical communication is to build a WDM-based all-optical network, in which the large-scale optical switches are the most important constituent elements. In essence, a large-scale optical switch can handle network traffic of thousands of input/output ports, allowing any input signal to be routed to the desired output port. Micro-mirrors realized by MEMS technology are intended to replace the conventional optical-electrical-optical conversion by routing light signals using direct reflection. The purpose is to reduce the required power and overall cost. In order to reduce the transmitting light path and the signal insertion loss in this large-scale optical switching application, the 3D-rotating angle of each micro-mirror has to be increased. In this design, we choose closed-loop control to realize a stable large rotation for the 3D micro-mirrors. Based on issues such as design area, power consumption and ease of fabrication, most research efforts on large-scale optical switches adopt open-loop parallel-plate electrostatic actuation. We expect to use feedback control to extend the travelled range of a parallel-plate actuator beyond one-third of the initial gap. Extended travelled range by charge control has been reported to overcome the pull-in limit. However this method has to use complex circuit to overcome leakage current and charge injection without guaranteed long-term stability. The applied closed-loop control can also perform sensitivity in face of external disturbance reduction. A linear controller and a position sensor are used in the closed-loop system. The controller is used to stabilize the extended position beyond the pull-in, and a capacitive sensor is used to detect the position. The fabrication of the mirror is based on the CMOS-MEMS process in order to minimize signal attenuation due to the parasitic capacitance. This theses includes the analysis and simulation of the actuator、the sensor and the servo-controller. The measurements of wet etching and dry etching, posting the CMOS process, verify the released structures.

In this study, we designed and simulated characteristics of High-Reflectance EUV multilayer mirrors. We fabricated multilayer mirrors and designed a capping layer above the multilayer mirror. The program developed at National Chiao Tung University (NCTU) and commercial Essential Macleod software were used for our design and simulations. Si/Mo multilayer mirrors at Instrument Technology Research Center (ITRC) were fabricated by the magnetic sputter system, and their reflectances were measured at National Synchrotron Radiation Research Center (NSRRC) by the mega EUV reflectometer. All multilayer mirrors with Ru as the capping layer we fabricated. Based on simulations, the reflectance of our designed multilayer mirror is 72.65%. The highest reflectance of our fabricated samples was 64.11 % with 40 stacks measured by the mega EUV reflectometer. Finally, we applied AFM, TEM, and Optical Profile for structure observation and analysis.

The integration of active and passive devices has been instrumental in achieving hybrid silicon laser as well as optical interconnects. In this thesis, the integration of active III-V laser and Silicon-On-Insulator Photonic Integrated Circuits through micro-mirror has been proposed. The micro-mirror is required to attain the phase matching with the grating coupler on the PIC surface. The light emitted by the III-V laser is input into the concave micro-mirror with alignment conditions such that the light reflected from the micro-mirror can be coupled into the grating coupler. The initial part of the thesis shows the simulation for coupling light using the FDTD wave propagation as well as Ray-tracing models. The FDTD modeling shows the highest coupling efficiency of 64% using an apodized grating coupler. The apodized grating thickness has been designed as 520 nm with an etch depth of 220 nm using the polysilicon overlay technique. The output waveguide thickness has been designed to be the standard 220 nm thickness for single-mode transmission. The Ray Tracing Model has been used to study the free space light propagation and reflection characteristics of the concave mirror. The laser source position has been designed to be 150 μm away from the concave mirror center and 167 μm away from the center of the concave mirror, near the edge of the 200 μm diameter mirror. The coupled power in this ray-tracing model has been computed to be 40.859% when the detector is at a distance of 100μm from the mirror edge. The thesis also presents the fabrication method of the semiconductor concave micro-mirror which includes the combination of V-groove fabrication and BCB coating followed by gold deposition on the top surface. The V-groove fabrication is achieved through the traditional anisotropic etching method followed by BCB spin coating in the V-grooves. Different BCB spin-coating parameters have been investigated for three different chips to determine the best mirror surface followed by gold deposition to make it a reflecting surface. Towards the end of the thesis, we have characterized this mirror surface using the 650 nm as well as the 1550 nm incident beam. The best incident angle for the detector surface so far has been 10.8 ± 2 degrees with a consistent beam spot size. The beam profiler measurements show that the highest power of the output beam with uniform Gaussian distribution has been achieved with mirror 2. The surface profile measurement for mirror 2 also concludes this result with a uniform curvature of the concave mirror along both sides of the center.
