+*Sources of error for the Attocube measurement*:
+- Beam non-perpendicularity to the concave mirror is linked to the non-perfect feedback loop:
+  - We have only finite gain / limited bandwidth so the Cercalo mirror angle will not be perfect
+  - The non-perpendicularity is measured by the 4QD and is used as the feedback signal, however this signal is noisy and even with infinite gain, this noise will be transmitted to the angle of the beam
+- Cercalo/Newport unwanted translation perpendicular to its surface.
+  This can be due to:
+  - Non idealities in the mechanics of the Cercalo
+  - Temperature variations
+  - The reproducible part of the perpendicular translation with respect to the angle of the Cercalo can be taken into account and subtracted from the Attocube measurement
 - Temperature variations of the metrology frame
-- Temperature / Pressure / Humidity variations of the air in the beam path

+** Change in refractive index of the air in the beam path
+<<sec:effect_refractive_index>>
+
+Three physical properties of the air makes change of the Attocube measurement:
+- Temperature: $K_T \approx 1 ppmK^{-1}$
+- Pressure: $K_P \approx 0.27 ppm hPa^{-1}$
+- Humidity: $K_{HR} \approx 0.01 ppm \% RH^{-1}$
+
+These physical properties should change relatively slowly, however, for a beam path of 100mm:
+| Air property Variations | Measurement error |
+|-------------------------+-------------------|
+| $\Delta T = 1^oC$       | 100nm             |
+| $\Delta P = 1hPa$       | 27nm              |
+| $\Delta 10\%RH$         | 10nm              |
+
+An *Environmental Compensation Unit* is used and can compensate for variations or air properties up to:
+| Air property Variations | Measurement error |
+|-------------------------+-------------------|
+| $\Delta T = \pm 0.1^oC$ | 20nm              |
+| $\Delta P = \pm 1hPa$   | 50nm              |
+| $\Delta \pm 2\%RH$      | 4nm               |
+
+#+begin_important
+The total measurement error induced by air properties variations is then:
+\begin{equation}
+  \sqrt{20^2 + 50^2 + 4^2} = 54nm
+\end{equation}
+
+The beam path should be protected using aluminum to minimize the change in refractive index of the air in the beam path.
+#+end_important
+
+** Thermal Expansion of the Metrology Frame
+The material used for the metrology frame is Aluminum.
+Its linear thermal expansion coefficient is $\alpha = 23 \cdot 10^{-6} K^{-1}$.
+
+The distance between the Attocube head and the Attocube is approximatively equal to 5cm.
+\[ \frac{\delta L}{\delta T} \approx 0.05 \cdot 23 \cdot 10^{-6} \approx 1\,\frac{\mu m}{{}^oC} \]
+If invar is used ($\alpha = 1.2 \cdot 10^{-6} \, K^{-1}$):
+\[ \frac{\delta L}{\delta T} \approx 60 \frac{nm}{{}^oC} \]
+
+Thus, the temperature of the metrology frame should be kept constant to less than $0.1\,^oC$.

+*** Estimation of sources of noise and disturbances
+Let's estimate the values of $d_u$, $d$ and $n_\theta$.
+
+**** ADC Quantization Noise
+The ADC quantization noise is:
+\begin{equation}
+  \Gamma_\text{ADC} = \frac{\left(\frac{\Delta V}{2^n}\right)^2}{12 f_s} \text{ in } \left[ \frac{V^2}{Hz} \right]
+\end{equation}
+with:
+- $\Delta V$: is the range of the ADC in $[V]$
+- $n$: is the number of ADC's bits
+- $f_s$: is the sampling frequency in $[Hz]$
+
+For the ADC used:
+- $\Delta V = 20\, V$
+- $n = 16$
+- $f_s = 10\, kHz$
+
+#+begin_important

+  \Gamma_\text{ADC}(f) = 7.76 \cdot 10^{-13}\,\left[ \frac{V^2}{Hz} \right]
+\end{equation}
+#+end_important
+
+**** DAC Quantization Noise
+The DAC quantization noise is:
+\begin{equation}
+  \Gamma_\text{DAC} = \frac{\left(\frac{\Delta V}{2^n}\right)^2}{12 f_s} \text{ in } \left[ \frac{V^2}{Hz} \right]
+\end{equation}
+with:
+- $\Delta V$: is the range of the DAC in $[V]$
+- $n$: is the number of DAC's bits
+- $f_s$: is the sampling frequency in $[Hz]$
+
+For the DAC used:
+- $\Delta V = 20\, V$
+- $n = 16$
+- $f_s = 10\, kHz$
+
+#+begin_important
+\begin{equation}
+  \Gamma_\text{DAC}(f) = 7.76 \cdot 10^{-13}\,\left[ \frac{V^2}{Hz} \right]
+\end{equation}
+#+end_important
+
+**** Noise of the Newport Mirror angle
+Plus, we estimate the effect of DAC quantization noise on the angle error on the Newport mirror.
+
+The gain of the Newport is:
+\begin{align*}
+  \frac{\theta_n}{V_n} &= \frac{26.2}{10}\ \left[ \frac{mrad}{V} \right] \\
+                       &= 2.62 \cdot 10^{-3}\ \left[ \frac{rad}{V} \right]
+\end{align*}
+
+\begin{align*}
+  \Gamma_{\theta_n}(f) &= \left(\frac{\theta_n}{V_n}\right)^2 \cdot \Gamma_\text{DAC}(f) \\
+                       &= (2.62 \cdot 10^{-3})^2 \cdot 7.76 \cdot 10^{-13} \\
+                       &= 3.96 \cdot 10^{-18}\,\left[ \frac{rad^2}{Hz} \right]
+\end{align*}
+
+If we integrate that to obtain an rms value:
+\begin{align*}
+  \theta_{n, rms} &= \sqrt{\int_{-f_s/2}^{f_s/2} \Gamma_{\theta_n}(f) df} \\
+                  &= 0.2\, \mu rad
+\end{align*}
+
+Which is much less than the noise equivalent angle specified by Newport: $3\, \mu rad\,[rms]$.
+Thus, quantization error of the DAC is not a problem.
+
+We expect the angle noise of the Newport mirror to be around $3\, \mu rad\,[rms]$ which is $6\, \mu rad\,[rms]$ for the beam angle.
+
+#+begin_important
+If we suppose a white noise, the power spectral density of the beam angle due to the noise of the Newport mirror corresponds to:
+\begin{align*}
+  \Gamma_{d} &= \frac{(6 \cdot 10^{-6})^2}{f_s}\ \left[ \frac{rad^2}{Hz} \right] \\
+                    &= 3.6 \cdot 10^{-15}\ \left[ \frac{rad^2}{Hz} \right]
+\end{align*}
+#+end_important
+
+**** Disturbances due the Newport Mirror Rotation
+We will rotate the Newport mirror in order to simulate a displacement of the Sample:
+- The angle range for the Newport mirror is $\pm 26.2\ mrad = \pm 1.5^o$
+- The radius of the concave mirror is 200 mm

+If we suppose small angles, the corresponding beam deviation is:
+\[ \delta \theta \approx 2*\frac{\alpha R}{H + R} = 1.6 \alpha \]
+where $\alpha$ is the rotation of the Newport mirror.

 *** Perfect Control
 If the feedback is perfect, the Cercalo angle error will be equal to the 4 quadrant diode noise.
 Let's estimate the 4QD noise in radians.
