This study presents a two-dimensional micro-/nanoradian angle generator (2D-MNAG) that achieves high angular displacement resolution and repeatability using a piezo-driven flexure hinge for two-dimensional deflections and three capacitive sensors for output angle monitoring and feedback control. The principal error of the capacitive sensor for precision microangle measurement is analyzed and compensated for; so as to achieve a high angle output resolution of 10 nrad (0.002 arcsec) and positioning repeatability of 120 nrad (0.024 arcsec) over a large angular range of ±4363 μrad (±900 arcsec) for the 2D-MNAG. The impact of each error component, together with the synthetic error of the 2D-MNAG after principal error compensation are determined using Monte Carlo simulation for further improvement of the 2D-MNAG.
本研究提出了一种二维微/纳弧度角发生器(2D-MNAG),它利用压电驱动的挠性铰链实现二维偏转,并使用三个电容式传感器进行输出角度监测和反馈控制,从而实现了高角位移分辨率和可重复性。分析并补偿了用于精密微角度测量的电容式传感器的主要误差;以便在2D-MNAG的±4363 μrad(±900 arcsec)的大角度范围内实现10 nrad(0.002 arcsec)的高角度输出分辨率和120 nrad(0.024 arcsec)的定位重复性。使用蒙特卡罗模拟确定每个误差分量的影响以及主要误差补偿后2D-MNAG的综合误差,以进一步改进2D-MNAG。
