M2 Optical Assembly Polishing Methodology

To meet Encircled Energy Budget, Tinsley will polish M2

surface to a nominal 40 deg telescope zenith angle.

– Tinsley will polish to a software null surface figure that will be

provided from an finite element analysis model.

– Gravity Induced Mount Error caused ~ 40 nm of 3 theta

(trefoil) surface error at horizontal LOS.

– This predictable error can be removed using localized

polishing to a software null.

Tinsley has a history of polishing Spherical and Aspheric

mirrors to extreme precision utilizing Computer Controlled

Optical Surfacing (CCOS) to data provided through

interferometric null testing.

This capability has been applied to optical surfaces that

do not have convenient null test configurations through

the use of a software null.

To accomplish this, an optic is measured relative to a

reference wavefront that provides a near-null

interferogram. This interferogram is then compared to the

expected interferogram for the desired amorphous surface

in test.

Software Null Example #1 JWST TM Software Null

In 2011, Tinsley completed the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) beryllium Mirrors

and Mirror Segments. Each was tested and fabricated in an ambient environment with a

software null expected to yield a nominal prescription in a cryogenic environment.

The 0.7m JWST TM software null had a magnitude of 66nm RMS and an irregular

shape.

The desired mirror surface was replicated to within 5 nm RMS of the nominal figure and

this result was verified through testing in cryogenic conditions.

Surface map of desired surface figure error:

390nm P-V, 66nm RMS from aspheric

prescription

Departure from desired surface:

79nm P-V, 4.3 nm RMS

For aspheric mirrors with slight departure from best fit sphere, this technique can be

used to reduce the cost and lead time associated with diffractive elements or test optics.

The optic is tested against a spherical wavefront. The test results are compared to an

expected deviation and the resulting data is used to manufacture the desired asphere.

This technique was implemented on the below displayed convex hyperboloid with

147nm RMS departure from best fit sphere.

M2 Metrology - Tinsley

L-3 IOS Tinsley plans to perform three measurements to verify prescription and

irregularity.

The optic will be tested

– (1) using a computer-generated hologram (CGH)

– (2) in a conjugate configuration

– (3) using profilometry

CGH testing allows the M2 Mirror to be easily sheared rotationally in gravity which is

attractive in that it allows measurement of the mount-induced surface distortion.

The aspheric departure of the M2 Mirror is relatively low and the CGH has a

relatively routine design. This will facilitate design and fabrication of the CGH and

reduces the effect of printing errors which improves the accuracy of the projected

wave front on the part. These residual errors are accounted for in our error budget.

M2 Primary Optical Test Method CGH Layout Design

The CGH test layout is shown below. The CGH is expected to be placed 315mm

from the Cat’s eye with the mirror located approximately 2.2m from the cat’s eye.

These spacings and alignments will be set using the CGH alignment features as

described in the Tolerance Analysis and Metrology Setup Alignment sections.

The primary buyoff methods of profilometry and the CGH based interferometric test

will be complimented by conjugate testing of the M2 Mirror, with an interferometer at

the far catseye, and an Spherically Mounted Reflector (SMR) at the near catseye

(Figure 1). The two conjugates are located at approximately 1.2 and 7.8m,

respectively, from the M2 Mirror vertex. This test will be set up on a 20 x 5 foot

optical table with a fold flat to account for the full long conjugate length

The test beam is approximately F/11. Data will be collected first as a full aperture

measurement to quantify prescription and low order shape, and then the test beam

will be zoomed in to 4x, to interrogate ~Ø150mm subapertures to quantify mid

frequency surface figure. These measurements will measure M2 Mirror spatial

periods from 75mm down to approximately 1.2mm. Phase measuring microscopy

will be used to measure spatial periods from below 0.15mm to as long as 2.5mm,

providing validating overlap with the subaperture measurements of high spatial

frequency surface structure to verify the high spatial frequency surface figure

accuracy requirement.

A laser tracker will then be used to directly measure the positions of the long

conjugate, the short conjugate and the mirror alignment targets which will give the

Radius of curvature and Conic constant.

The Off Axis Distance and Clocking relative to the alignment targets will be

measured in the CGH based interferometric test as a secondary method. This will

use the alignment targets as retro reflectors that position the optic relative to the

CGH and cat’s eye

Optical Testing Heritage JWST Tertiary – Conjugate Test

L-3 IOS Tinsley used a conjugate test to verify the optical prescription of the JWST

tertiary.

The far conjugate of the JWST tertiary mirror is located 16m from the mirror, forcing

the test setup to be folded to fit within available facility space.

The JWST tertiary conjugate test was designed as a prescription verification only

(radius, conic, OAD) and extra precautions were not taken to achieve the best

possible surface figure error accuracy.

Nevertheless, the conjugate test measurements achieved 15nm RMS agreement

with the CGH center of curvature test ,proving the value of these two independent

metrology approaches in cross-checking each other.

This agreement can be improved through calibration of the transmission sphere,

using an improved SMR at the short conjugate, and controlling air turbulence each of

which is described in the Tolerance Analysis section.

Test Methodology Heritage to JWST Tertiary (1)

L-3 IOS Tinsley used the three optical test methods (CGH center of curvature,

conjugate testing, and optical profilometry) in 2010 to verify the surface figure

accuracy of the JWST tertiary mirror. The primary test method was CGH center of

curvature. L-3 IOS Tinsley delivered the JWST tertiary mirror with a surface error of

4.3 nm RMS.

M2 Profilometry Test Method Heritage JWST Tertiary

L-3 IOS Tinsley used profilometry to cross-check the optical prescription on the

JWST tertiary.

Our Profilometry measurements are accurate for low order shape with a 3σ

confidence to 490 nm P-V. This uncertainty is used to bound the potential errors in

OAD, Clocking, and Radius.

This analysis can be seen in the Tolerance Analysis section. The profilometers are

also accurate in mid frequency surface figure to 100 nm RMS as seen below in a

measurement of the JWST Tertiary Mirror.

Although this did not act as a fully redundant quantification of the RMS surface

figure error requirement, it did show that there were no major errors with the optical

tests.

M2 Optical Test Tolerance Overview

The key parameters for Tolerance Analysis for the ATST M2 Mirror are the radius of

curvature, the rotation relative to the M2 Assembly (clocking), the off axis distance,

and the surface figure error. The Table below summarizes the sensitivity of sag

error to variation of these key parameters within their tolerance band.

M2 CGH Test Method Tolerances

CGH Based Interferometry will serve as the primary buyoff method for surface figure

error and as a redundant method for Off Axis Distance and Clocking. This test uses

a CGH to modify a spherical wavefront to match the aspheric prescription of the

mirror. We will align the mirror in test to match the positions of the alignment targets

on the mirror to pencil beams that will be emitted from the CGH. These beams will

retro reflect off of the alignment targets, and produce fringes in the interferometer

which we will use to position the mirror in X and Y decenter as well as clocking to the

CGH. For the JWST TM this alignment method was sufficient to align the mirror to

0.33 arc minutes in clocking and 0.1 mm of centration, and similar uncertainty is

expected on the ATST M2. The Z position of the part will then be floated and

residual alignment aberrations are accounted for in our error budget. Figure 1 is our

initial error budget analysis for the surface figure error of the ATST M2.

Each error source is assigned a sensitivity which describes the effect of a

perturbation of this term on our knowledge of the optical surface and a tolerance

which bounds the size of the perturbation in test. The tolerances in this analysis are

based on as-measured tolerances from the JWST TM CGH test and will be re-

quantified for the ATST M2. The sensitivities are based on an initial design for the

ATST M2 by Diffraction International and will be updated when the final design is

complete.

The conjugate test will also provide a secondary measurement of the Surface figure

error. This measurement will have errors associated with air turbulence over the

long path length, errors in the surface of the retro ball placed at the short conjugate,

and errors in the transmission sphere on the interferometer.

Great care is taken to reduce the air turbulence and thermal gradients by performing

the measurements in our large optics metrology lab equipped with a constant

unidirectional air flow. This serves to keep air moving through the test which

prevents pockets of heat from forming and disrupting the measurement. Since

Tinsley is operational 24 hours per day the final tests can be set up to run through

during the night shifts which additionally reduces turbulence and thermal variations.

For the Retro Ball at the short conjugate, we will use a ruby ball coated in silver to

provide a high precision optical surface. These balls are spherical to within ~60nm

P-V which is typically due to surface defects on the ball. The specific ball to be used

will be measured and quantified for the Conjugate test Error budget. This will not

contribute significantly to the 25nm RMS specification.

Transmission sphere will be calibrated and subtracted using a shearing algorithm

and a calibration sphere.

M2 Profilometry Test Method Tolerances

The primary buyoff method for Radius, Off Axis Distance, and Clocking will be with

the Leitz PMM_C Profilometer.

Well designed profilometry fixtures which allow for repeatable and stable placements

of our test optics.

Careful calibrations and analysis to remove errors due to thermal drift and spurious

data points allow very precise measurements of optical prescription on our Leitz

PMM_C profilometer.

Gravity deflection and thermal gradients are also important considerations in

characterization of prescription, and can be calculated and compensated for if

necessary.

Table shows repeated measurements of a

concave sphere of radius 1757.127mm

and diameter 620mm. The Sphere is

measured using an interferometer with a

DMI, and is measured with the Leitz

PMM_C. The radius is compared to find

the uncertainty of the profilometer for low

order shape. Out of 15 measurements

the maximum Radius discrepancy is .0209

mm which translates to a sag error of

333nm P-V using the sag equation of a

sphere.

The 99% confidence deviation is the

average deviation plus 3σ, .002 mm +

3*.0096mm.

This yields a three sigma confidence of

0.0308mm or 490nm P-V.

M2 CGH Test Method Tolerances

This analysis of surface figure error

shows a total potential error of 5.85

nm RMS. This is removed in

quadrature from the total tolerance

of 25nm RMS to leave a part

fabrication residual of 24.3 nm

RMS. This means that when these

tolerances are met and we measure

a final value less than 24.3 nm

RMS, we will have confidence that

the true value is below 25nm.

In order to meet these tolerances a

careful fine alignment of the

interferometer, CGH, and part under

test is needed. The equipment and

methods used for this alignment are

described in the Metrology Setup

Alignment plans section.

M2 Conjugate Test Method Tolerances

The conjugate test will serve as the redundant buyoff method for Surface Figure

Error, Radius of Curvature, and Conic Constant. In this test the interferometer, part

under test, and a retro reflecting tooling ball will be placed on a 20x5 foot table with a

fold flat to account for the full long conjugate length. They will be aligned to best null

and a laser tracker will be used to measure the spacing between an SMR placed at

Cat’s eye, the parent vertex of the part through the alignment datums, and an SMR

placed at the short conjugate. This spacing will be reported along with the residual

measured wave front to show the Conic Constant, Radius of Curvature, and Surface

Figure Error.

In order to ensure that the Radius and Conic fall within 1mm of nominal Radius and

the associated shift in conic through, the short conjugate must be known with an

accuracy of .7mm and the long conjugate must be known with an accuracy of

1.435mm as seen below in figure 2. These uncertainties are large relative to the

abilities of the laser tracker and should not represent a technical challenge. For the

JWST TM, a similar conjugate test was performed. The uncertainties in the

measured conjugate locations for that test were .035mm for the long conjugate and

.018mm for the short conjugate. The agreement between this test and our primary

methods for measuring Radius and Conic were .057mm and .00012 respectively,

which would be well in the range of the ATST M2 allowed tolerances.

M2 Metrology Setup Mechanical Equipment

In order to meet the tolerances laid

out in our error budget, a careful fine

alignment of the interferometer,

CGH, and part under test is needed.

Tinsley’s unique 5-axis mount, as

seen in figure 1, allows sub micron

adjustments in X, Y, and Z,

translation as well as sub micro

radian adjustments in rotation about

the X and Y axes.

The CGH will also be mounted in a

fine pitched 5 axis mount, which will

allow the error budget required 2µm

of placement accuracy of the cat’s

eye relative to the other optical

components.

M2 Metrology Setup CGH Alignment

The CGH is first set to be normal to the interferometer’s outgoing beam by centering

the reflection of a collimated source off of it’s front surface on the alignment camera.

Then the transmission sphere is installed and the holograms designed into the CGH

are used for subsequent alignment.

The CGH is designed with three separate hologram patterns. The main central

hologram will hold the prescription of the asphere. This will bend the incoming

spherical wave front so that each ray contacts the surface of the M2 at normal

incidence.

A second hologram pattern is built into the exterior portion of the CGH that will give a

null return when the CGH is properly placed with respect to the cat’s eye to confirm

that this alignment tolerance is not exceeded. Since there fringes returned to the

interferometer this can be aligned to sub micron accuracy in x, y, and z centration.

A third set of holograms will create three pencil beams just outside the aperture of

the optic. These beams will converge on the alignment targets attached to the optic

and, when properly aligned, will return fringes to the interferometer which sets the X

and Y centration and clocking of the optic relative to the CGH and cat’s eye.

Finally, since the radius of curvature is controlled with the profilometer and conjugate

test, the optic is adjusted in Z translation to null out power fringes. This type of CGH

design was used on the JWST Tertiary Mirror, and has proven itself to accurately

place the CGH and Mirror relative to cat’s eye within budgeted alignment tolerances.

M2 Metrology Setup Conjugate Alignment

For the Conjugate null test the part will be similarly loaded onto our 5-axis mount on

a 20x5 foot table.

A fold flat can be used to accommodate the extra distance to the long conjugate

location.

An SMR will be placed at the short conjugate location and the mirror and short

conjugate SMR will be adjusted in X, Y, and Z decenter as well as clocking and tilt to

achieve the best null.

A laser tracker will then be used to measure the relative positions of the long and

short conjugates, and the alignment targets on the mirror.

These measurements will quantify the Conic, Radius of curvature, and residual

surface figure error within the allotted specifications. See the Tolerance Analysis

section for a further discussion of allowed alignment tolerances.
