## page was renamed from Upgrade 09/Optical Layout <> ------ = ►Change in the optical layout = == Optical Layout plan == === Vent Aug 04, 2011 === The new layout as of vent on Aug 04, 2011 [[https://dcc.ligo.org/cgi-bin/private/DocDB/ShowDocument?docid=98061]] == Archive of the previous layouts == === Vent Dec 18, 2010 === The major change in the optical layout is the change of the cavity lengths for PRC and SRC. Since the modulation frequencies of 11MHz and 55MHz are used for the control of the interferometer, the lengths of PRC and SRC are significantly streched. The actual modulation frequency is 11.065399MHz and its integer multiples. (based on the measurement of the MC length on 29th Sept, 2009) This corresponds to the cavity lengths of about 6.8 m and 5.4 m for the PRC and SRC, respectively. For the correct amount of those lengths, visit [[IFO_Modeling]] pages. These cavity lengths result in numbers of modifications in the optical configuration: * In order to accomodate longer PRC and SRC, they have to be folded across the several optical tables. * The curvature radii of PRM and SRM are recalculated accordingly. * We are going to employ 2inch flat folding mirrors suspended with Enhanced LIGO/Advanced LIGO style Tip-Tilt suspensions with passive damping using eddy current. The optical layout plan as of Dec 18, 2010. This reflects the latest installation of the optics in the vacuum chambers. [[attachment:101218_40m_upgrade_layout.pdf]] The main beam (red) and the pick-off beams (pale blue) indicated by three parallel lines has 18mm diameter. This indicates 6w, where w is the beam radius. The waist size of the arm cavity is about 3mm (1/e^2 radius) and the Rayleigh range is about 27m. - To Do: * Output MMT === - Previous layouts by Y. Aso === Previous optical layout by Y.

Smith. * During the dwg->dwb conversion, a lot of information is lost. * Because of this, it turned out (for KA) that precise work in VariCAD is totally difficult. * Layer function of VariCAD is too weak to work with. === - RSE layout by M.

'''Note: This calculation does not include the effect of the arm cavity. Thus the length of the cavities are slightly different from the actual desired values.''' = ►Effect of the wedge = <> All of the main optics have wedge angles of several degrees in order to avoid undesirable interference of back-surface reflections into the main beam. Because of these wedges, we need to design the optical path slightly shifted from the normal angles.In order to incorporate the effect of the wedges, a Mathematica code to calculate the beam deflections has been developed. [[attachment:wedge_analysis.nb]] {{attachment:ITMY_wedge_1deg.png}} [[attachment:wedge.pdf|attachment:wedge.pdf]] <> = ► Issues related to the replacement of PR3 and SR3 (plan) = It turns out that we need to move the position of the periscope to accommodate some beam dumps for the green light. Some details are described in this section. == Proposed Optical layout for PR3 region == We will replace the PR3 mirror by a better dichroic mirror to get more power in the transmitted green light. At the same time, in order to avoid unwanted ghost beams due to the transmission through PR3, an wedge angle of 2 deg has been proposed. However on the other hand, it turned out that we need to make some space to accommodate beam dumps. The attached picture below shows the proposed optical layout around the PR3 region. * PR3 -- remains at the same position. * TFP-532-56 (PBS) -- remains at the same position. * periscope -- needs to be go toward the MC side, however the periscope is already on the edge of the optical table. * a solution is to install a table extension to allow the periscope to go further. * beam dumps -- we will newly install two of them. * Another advantage of the table extension -- There is a hole just underneath where the PBS stands (it's not shown in the attached layout). * A table expansion can cover the hole. {{ attachment:PR3.png }} .

[[ attachment:PR3_layout.zip | omnigraffle]] == Proposed Optical layout for SR3 region == Also for the same reason, we will replace the SR3 mirror too. Unlike the PR3 situation, there looks plenty of space. Therefore we don't have to do some special treatment for this. The picture below shows the proposed optical layout around the SR3 region. * SR3 -- remains at the same position. * Y2-2050 --- remains at the same position. * beam dump -- we will newly install one. {{ attachment:SR3.png }} .
