arm cavity oplev calibration |

calibrated the y-arm oplevs. the procedure is contained in a matlab script. the whereabouts of this script will be revealed in a future log entry.
ITMYpit 140 microrad/ct
ITMYyaw 98 microrad/ct
ETMYpit 400 microrad/ct
ETMYyaw 440 microrad/ct (previous measurement gave 420 microrad/ct)
procedure:
1) Start with a single arm aligned and locked. Dither the mirror tilt in a DOF. Measure arm cavity power and oplev error signal. See the first attached plot.
2) Fit the plot to a gaussian and determine mu and sigma.
3) For a spherical ETM optic, the power in the cavity P(a), as a function of translational beam axis displacement a=R*sin(theta), is proportional to exp[-a^2/(2*x^2)] where x is the waist size (D. Anderson APPLIED OPTICS, Vol. 23, No. 17, 1984). The power as a function of mirror tilt in cts, P(tilt) is proportional to exp[-(tilt-mu)^2 /(2*sigma^2)]. So if R is the mirror radius then theta = arcsin(a/R) = arcsin[(1/R)*(tilt-mu)*x/sigma)].
4) Fit theta versus mirror tilt to get the calibration. See the second attached plot.
5) For a flat ITM optic, mirror tilt causes an angular displacement of the beam. The math for this case is given in Anderson. |
