The heterodyne laser interferometer has a nano-meter scale resolution. However, the unwanted nonlinearity error caused from frequency-mixing limits the ultra-precise resolution. In this paper, we propose a recursive WLS algorithm to improve the resolution of heterodyne laser interferometer. Some experimental results show an effectiveness of the recursive WLS algorithm in nano-meter scale resolution.

Laser Doppler Vibrometer using heterodyne method with a 632.8 nm He-Ne laser, has been developed for the measurement of small displacement and velocity. The measurement uses heterodyne method can be made insensitive to undesired vibration effect acting the system and can yield the sign of Doppler shift at the expense of increased complexity. A Bragg cell gives a frequency shift of 40MHz for heterodyne method. Frequency Modulated output is detected by spectrum analyzer.

The laser interferometer has been used for measurement of the micro displacement error. Although the laser interferometer is widely accepted as a tool for measurement of motion accuracy, the set-up procedure is time-consuming because of the strict requirement on alignment between a laser head and optic units. This paper addresses the development of a laser interferometer to measure the micro displacement for a micro machine. The portable laser interferometer which integrates a laser probe and optics, is developed for the convenient measurement. For the experiment, moving mirror set up on the micro stage. The velocity decoding board is also added to calculate doppler shift frequency directly. The output signal is obtained and analyzed by LabView. Finally experiments are found out the relation between micro displacement and output signal.

As an ultra-precision measurement system the heterodyne laser interferometer plays an important role in semiconductor industry. However the errors of environment and nonlinearity which are caused by air refraction and frequency-mixing separately reduce the accuracy of displacement measurement. In this paper we propose a DFNN(data fusion and neural network) method for error compensation. As a hybrid method of data fusion and neural network, DFNN method reduces the environmental and nonlinear error simultaneously. The effectiveness of the proposed error compensation method is proved through experimental results.

The ultra precision linear stage is an essential device in the fields of MEMS and Bio technology. A piezo electric motor is widely used for its better linear characteristics, faster response time, and smaller size than conventional electro-magnetic actuator. We develop a new inchworm type motor to implement an actuator-integrated a long stroke linear stage which can move fast. To implement a servo system, we use a heterodyne interferometer as a position sensor, and we propose a new measurement technique using I/Q demodulator, and we propose a counting method to measure the position of fast moving object with low cost circuitry. The characteristics of the actuator and servo system are evaluated by measuring its displacement with a commercial laser interferometer.

This paper proposes a high precision measurement technique to obtain the height of gage block with a few millimeter height. The proposed technique is consisted of two steps : In the first step, laser position transducer and electric micrometer are adopted to obtain a coarse value of the height of gage block, and then, in the second step, heterodyne laser interferometry is adopted to acquire the precision value. A new kind of phase detector is constructed in the low cost for the heterodyne interferometer and its linearity with ${\pm}1%$ is confirmed by experiment. Also measurement error factors due to enviroments are discussed and methodology to reduce such errors is proposed. Preliminary experiments are carried out for the gage blocks of as high as a few millimeter.

We propose a new displacement measurement method using a phase modulation homodyne interferometer and a tunable laser diode as a light source to determine an arbitrary length with a resolution in the order of 10 pm. In the proposed instrument, the displacement of a movable mirror in the interferometer can be converted to a frequency shift of the tunable laser diode. We discuss the principles of the proposed method, the instrumentation, and the experimental results, and compare the proposed method with two commercial displacement sensors. The commercial sensors used are a heterodyne interferometer, the interpolation error of which is also measured, and a capacitive sensor.

This paper addresses the development of a laser interferometer to measure micro displacement for a micro system. The laser interferometer is able to measure micro displacement during a few micro seconds with non-contact. In order to employ the interferometer, the displacement calibration experiment should be required. For the experiment, a laser probe installed on the optical table with optical devices and a micro stage. The velocity decoding board is also added to calculate doppler shift frequency directly. The output signal is processed by LabView. Finally experiments are found out the relation between displacement and output signal.

Micro former has been known as a useful tool for machining micro parts. It makes micro holes automatically with punches, a hole-shape die and material by rotation of crank shaft synchronously. Micro displacement in micro forming affects on the performance of machining because micro forming size is similar with its mechanical displacement. Therefore, the measurement of this micro displacement is essential to be guaranteed to obtain high forming precision in the whole machine as well as its devices. This paper addresses the development of a laser interferometer to measure micro displacement for a micro former. The laser interferometer is able to measure micro displacement during a few micro seconds with non-contact. For the experiment, a laser probe is installed on the optical table with optical devices and a micro displacement generating device. The velocity decoding board is also added to calculate doppler shift frequency directly. Finally simple experiments are conducted to confirm its functional operation.
