The overall objective is to design a nano-hexapod an the associated control architecture that allows the stabilization of samples down to \(\approx 10nm\) in presence of disturbances and system variability.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
To understand the design challenges of such system, a short introduction to Feedback control is provided in Section <a href="#org7e7a358">1</a>.
|
|
The mathematical tools (Power Spectral Density, Noise Budgeting, …) that will be used throughout this study are also introduced.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
To be able to develop both the nano-hexapod and the control architecture in an optimal way, we need a good estimation of:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul class="org-ul">
|
|
<li>the micro-station dynamics (Section <a href="#org868c28e">2</a>)</li>
|
|
<li>the frequency content of the important source of disturbances in play such as vibration of stages and ground motion (Section <a href="#orgc63f45d">3</a>)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
We then develop a model of the system that must represent all the important physical effects in play.
|
|
Such model is presented in Section <a href="#org266e91c">4</a>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
A modular model of the nano-hexapod is then included in the system.
|
|
The effects of the nano-hexapod characteristics on the dynamics are then studied.
|
|
Based on that, an optimal choice of the nano-hexapod stiffness is made (Section <a href="#org5c992d7">5</a>).
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Finally, using the optimally designed nano-hexapod, a robust control architecture is developed.
|
|
Simulations are performed to show that this design gives acceptable performance and the required robustness (Section <a href="#orgfaf2359">6</a>).

In this section, we first introduce some basics of <b>feedback systems</b> (Section <a href="#org513fa55">1.1</a>).
|
|
This should highlight the challenges in terms of combined performance and robustness.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
In Section <a href="#org86d415c">1.2</a> is introduced the <b>dynamic error budgeting</b> which is a powerful tool that allows to derive the total error in a dynamic system from multiple disturbance sources.
|
|
This tool will be widely used throughout this study to both predict the performances and identify the effects that do limit the performances.

The use of feedback control as several advantages and pitfalls that are listed below (taken from <a class='org-ref-reference' href="#schmidt14_desig_high_perfor_mechat_revis_edition">schmidt14_desig_high_perfor_mechat_revis_edition</a>):
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul class="org-ul">
|
|
<li><b>Advantages</b>:
|
|
<ul class="org-ul">
|
|
<li><b>Reduction of the effect of disturbances</b>:
|
|
Disturbances affecting the sample vibrations are observed by the sensor signal, and therefore the feedback controller can compensate for them</li>
|
|
<li><b>Handling of uncertainties</b>:
|
|
Feedback controlled systems can also be designed for <i>robustness</i>, which means that the stability and performance requirements are guaranteed even for parameter variation of the controller mechatronics system</li>
|
|
</ul></li>
|
|
<li><b>Pitfalls</b>:
|
|
<ul class="org-ul">
|
|
<li><b>Limited reaction speed</b>:
|
|
A feedback controller reacts on the difference between the reference signal (wanted motion) and the measurement (actual motion), which means that the error has to occur first <i>before</i> the controller can correct for it.
|
|
The limited reaction speed means that the controller will be able to compensate the positioning errors only in some frequency band, called the controller <i>bandwidth</i></li>
|
|
<li><b>Feedback of noise</b>:
|
|
By closing the loop, the sensor noise is also fed back and will induce positioning errors</li>
|
|
<li><b>Can introduce instability</b>:
|
|
Feedback control can destabilize a stable plant.
|
|
Thus the <i>robustness</i> properties of the feedback system must be carefully guaranteed</li>

Let’s consider the block diagram shown in Figure <a href="#org11ec0bb">1</a> where the signals are:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul class="org-ul">
|
|
<li>\(y\): the relative position of the sample with respect to the granite (the quantity we wish to control)</li>
|
|
<li>\(d\): the disturbances affecting \(y\) (ground motion, vibration of stages)</li>
|
|
<li>\(n\): the noise of the sensor measuring \(y\)</li>
|
|
<li>\(r\): the reference signal, corresponding to the wanted \(y\)</li>
|
|
<li>\(\epsilon = r - y\): the position error</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
And the dynamical blocks are:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul class="org-ul">
|
|
<li>\(G\): representing the dynamics from forces/torques applied by the nano-hexapod to the relative position sample/granite \(y\)</li>
|
|
<li>\(G_d\): representing how the disturbances (e.g. ground motion) are affecting the relative position sample/granite \(y\)</li>
|
|
<li>\(K\): representing the controller (to be designed)</li>
|
|
</ul>

</div>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Without the use of feedback (i.e. nano-hexapod), the disturbances will induce a sample motion error equal to:
|
|
</p>
|
|
\begin{equation}
|
|
y = G_d d \label{eq:open_loop_error}
|
|
\end{equation}
|
|
<p>
|
|
which is out of the specifications (micro-meter range compare to the required \(\approx 10nm\)).
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
In the next section, we see how the use of the feedback system permits to lower the effect of the disturbances \(d\) on the sample motion error.

<h4 id="orgb263f05"><span class="section-number-4">1.1.2</span> How does the feedback loop is modifying the system behavior?</h4>
|
|
<div class="outline-text-4" id="text-1-1-2">
|
|
<p>
|
|
If we write down the position error signal \(\epsilon = r - y\) as a function of the reference signal \(r\), the disturbances \(d\) and the measurement noise \(n\) (using the feedback diagram in Figure <a href="#org11ec0bb">1</a>), we obtain:
|
|
\[ \epsilon = \frac{1}{1 + GK} r + \frac{GK}{1 + GK} n - \frac{G_d}{1 + GK} d \]
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
We usually note:
|
|
</p>
|
|
\begin{align}
|
|
S &= \frac{1}{1 + GK} \\
|
|
T &= \frac{GK}{1 + GK}
|
|
\end{align}
|
|
<p>
|
|
where \(S\) is called the sensibility transfer function and \(T\) the transmissibility transfer function.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
And the position error can be rewritten as:
|
|
</p>
|
|
\begin{equation}
|
|
\epsilon = S r + T n - G_d S d \label{eq:closed_loop_error}
|
|
\end{equation}
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
From Eq. \eqref{eq:closed_loop_error} representing the closed-loop system behavior, we can see that:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul class="org-ul">
|
|
<li>the effect of disturbances \(d\) on \(\epsilon\) is multiplied by a factor \(S\) compared to the open-loop case</li>
|
|
<li>the measurement noise \(n\) is injected and multiplied by a factor \(T\)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Ideally, we would like to design the controller \(K\) such that:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul class="org-ul">
|
|
<li>\(|S|\) is small to limit the effect of disturbances</li>
|
|
<li>\(|T|\) is small to limit the injection of sensor noise</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
As shown in the next section, there is a trade-off between the disturbance reduction and the noise injection.

|
|
<div class="outline-text-4" id="text-1-1-3">
|
|
<p>
|
|
We have from the definition of \(S\) and \(T\) that:
|
|
</p>
|
|
\begin{equation}
|
|
S + T = \frac{1}{1 + GK} + \frac{GK}{1 + GK} = 1
|
|
\end{equation}
|
|
<p>
|
|
meaning that we cannot have \(|S|\) and \(|T|\) small at the same time.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is therefore a <b>trade-off between the disturbance rejection and the measurement noise filtering</b>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Typical shapes of \(|S|\) and \(|T|\) as a function of frequency are shown in Figure <a href="#orge580365">2</a>.
|
|
We can observe that \(|S|\) and \(|T|\) exhibit different behaviors depending on the frequency band:

</p>

<ul class="org-ul">
|
|
<li><b>At low frequency</b> (inside the control bandwidth):

<ul class="org-ul">

<li>\(|T| \approx 1\) and all the sensor noise is transmitted</li>

</ul></li>
|
|
<li><b>At high frequency</b> (outside the control bandwidth):

<ul class="org-ul">

<li>\(|S| \approx 1\) and the feedback system does not reduce the effect of disturbances</li>
|

<li>\(|T|\) is small and thus the sensor noise is filtered</li>
|
|
</ul></li>
|
|
<li><b>Near the crossover frequency</b> (between the two frequency bands):

<a id="org93ae354"></a>

<p>
|
|
As shown in the previous section, the effect of disturbances is reduced <i>inside</i> the control bandwidth.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Moreover, the slope of \(|S(j\omega)|\) is limited for stability reasons (not explained here), and therefore a large control bandwidth is required to obtain sufficient disturbance rejection at lower frequencies (where the disturbances have large effects).
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The next important question is <b>what effects do limit the attainable control bandwidth?</b>
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The main issue it that for stability reasons, <b>the behavior of the mechanical system must be known with only small uncertainty in the vicinity of the crossover frequency</b>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
For mechanical systems, this generally means that control bandwidth should take place before any appearing of flexible dynamics (Right part of Figure <a href="#org7541c80">3</a>).
|
|
</p>
|
|
|

|

This also means that <b>any possible change in the system should have a small impact on the system dynamics in the vicinity of the crossover</b>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
For the NASS, the possible changes in the system are:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul class="org-ul">
|
|
<li>a modification of the payload mass and dynamics</li>
|
|
<li>a change of experimental condition: spindle’s rotation speed, position of each micro-station’s stage</li>

The dynamic error budgeting is a powerful tool to study the effect of multiple error sources and to see how the feedback system does reduce the effect

To understand how to use and understand it, the Power Spectral Density and the Cumulative Power Spectrum are first introduced.

<div class="outline-text-4" id="text-1-2-1">
|
|
<p>
|
|
The <b>Power Spectral Density</b> (PSD) \(S_{xx}(f)\) of the time domain signal \(x(t)\) is defined as the Fourier transform of the autocorrelation function:
|
|
\[ S_{xx}(\omega) = \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} R_{xx}(\tau) e^{-j \omega \tau} d\tau \ \frac{[\text{unit of } x]^2}{\text{Hz}} \]
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The PSD \(S_{xx}(\omega)\) represents the <b>distribution of the (average) signal power over frequency</b>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Thus, the total power in the signal can be obtained by integrating these infinitesimal contributions, the Root Mean Square (RMS) value of the signal \(x(t)\) is then:
|
|
</p>
|
|
\begin{equation}
|
|
x_{\text{rms}} = \sqrt{\int_{0}^{\infty} S_{xx}(\omega) d\omega}
|
|
\end{equation}
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
One can also integrate the infinitesimal power \(S_{xx}(\omega)d\omega\) over a finite frequency band to obtain the power of the signal \(x\) in that frequency band:
|
|
</p>
|
|
\begin{equation}
|
|
P_{f_1,f_2} = \int_{f_1}^{f_2} S_{xx}(\omega) d\omega \quad [\text{unit of } x]^2

<div class="outline-text-4" id="text-1-2-2">
|
|
<p>
|
|
The <b>Cumulative Power Spectrum</b> is the cumulative integral of the Power Spectral Density starting from \(0\ \text{Hz}\) with increasing frequency:
|
|
</p>
|
|
\begin{equation}
|
|
CPS_x(f) = \int_0^f S_{xx}(\nu) d\nu \quad [\text{unit of } x]^2
|
|
\end{equation}
|
|
<p>
|
|
The Cumulative Power Spectrum taken at frequency \(f\) thus represent the power in the signal in the frequency band \(0\) to \(f\).
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
An alternative definition of the Cumulative Power Spectrum can be used where the PSD is integrated from \(f\) to \(\infty\):
|
|
</p>
|
|
\begin{equation}
|
|
CPS_x(f) = \int_f^\infty S_{xx}(\nu) d\nu \quad [\text{unit of } x]^2
|
|
\end{equation}
|
|
<p>
|
|
And thus \(CPS_x(f)\) represents the power in the signal \(x\) for frequencies above \(f\).
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The Cumulative Power Spectrum will be used to determine in which frequency band the effect of disturbances should be reduced, and thus the approximate required control bandwidth.

Let’s consider the Feedback architecture in Figure <a href="#org11ec0bb">1</a> where the position error \(\epsilon\) is equal to:
|
|
\[ \epsilon = S r + T n - G_d S d \]
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If we suppose that the signals \(r\), \(n\) and \(d\) are <b>uncorrelated</b> (which is a good approximation in our case), the PSD of \(\epsilon\) is:
|
|
\[ S_{\epsilon \epsilon}(\omega) = |S(j\omega)|^2 S_{rr}(\omega) + |T(j\omega)|^2 S_{nn}(\omega) + |G_d(j\omega) S(j\omega)|^2 S_{dd}(\omega) \]
|

</p>

And we can compute the RMS value of the residual motion using:

</p>
|
|
\begin{align*}

\epsilon_\text{rms} &= \sqrt{ \int_0^\infty S_{\epsilon\epsilon}(\omega) d\omega} \\

As explained before, it is very important to have a good estimation of the micro-station dynamics as it will be coupled with the dynamics of the nano-hexapod and thus is very important for both the design of the nano-hexapod and controller.
|

</p>
|

The estimated dynamics will also be used to tune the developed multi-body model of the micro-station with which the simulations will be performed.

All the measurements performed on the micro-station are detailed in <a href="https://tdehaeze.github.io/meas-analysis/">this</a> document and summarized in the following sections.

To measure the dynamics of such complicated system, it as been chosen to perform a modal analysis.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
To limit the number of degrees of freedom to be measured, we suppose that in the frequency range of interest (DC-300Hz), each of the positioning stage is behaving as a <b>solid body</b>.
|
|
Thus, to fully describe the dynamics of the station, we (only) need to measure 6 degrees of freedom on each of the positioning stage (that is 36 degrees of freedom for the 6 solid bodies).
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
In order to perform the <b>Modal Analysis</b>, the following devices were used:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul class="org-ul">
|
|
<li>An <b>acquisition system</b> (OROS) with 24bits ADCs</li>
|
|
<li>3 tri-axis <b>Accelerometers</b></li>
|
|
<li>An <b>Instrumented Hammer</b></li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The measurement thus consists of:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul class="org-ul">
|
|
<li>Exciting the structure at the same location with the Hammer (Figure <a href="#org8df0fec">7</a>)</li>
|
|
<li>Move the accelerometers to measure all the DOF of the structure.
|
|
The position of the accelerometers are:
|
|
<ul class="org-ul">
|
|
<li>4 on the first granite</li>
|
|
<li>4 on the second granite</li>
|
|
<li>4 on top of the translation stage (figure <a href="#orgbac8a5e">8</a>)</li>
|
|
<li>4 on top of the tilt stage</li>
|
|
<li>3 on top of the spindle</li>
|
|
<li>4 on top of the hexapod</li>
|
|
</ul></li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
In total, 69 degrees of freedom are measured (23 tri axis accelerometers) which is more that what was required.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
We chose to have some redundancy in the measurement to be able to verify that the solid-body assumption is correct for each of the stage.

From the measurements, we obtain all the transfer functions from forces applied at the location of the hammer impacts to the x-y-z acceleration of each solid body at the location of each accelerometer.

We then reduce the number of degrees of freedom from 69 (23 accelerometers with each 3DOF) to 36 (6 solid bodies with 6 DOF).

From the reduced transfer function matrix, we can re-synthesize the response at the 69 measured degrees of freedom and we find that we have an exact match.

Note that here we are not much interested by low frequency disturbances such as thermal effects and static guiding errors of each positioning stage.

This is because the frequency content of these errors will be located in the controller bandwidth and thus will be easily compensated by the nano-hexapod.

The measured Power Spectral Density of the ground motion at the ID31 floor is compared with other measurements performed at ID09 and at CERN.

The low frequency differences between the ground motion at ID31 and ID09 is just due to the fact that for the later measurement, the low frequency sensitivity of the inertial sensor was not taken into account.

We can also estimate the required bandwidth by seeing that \(10\ nm [rms]\) motion is induced by the perturbations above 100Hz.

</p>
|

<p>
|

This means that if the controller compensate all the motion errors below 100Hz (ideal case), 10nm [rms] of motion will still remain.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
From that, we can conclude that we will probably need a control bandwidth to around 100Hz.

This is not perfect as using only one geophone on the sample and one on the granite do not permit to separate the translations and the rotations.

Main disturbance sources have been identified.

These disturbances will then be included in the multi-body model.

|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Other disturbance sources were not estimated such as cable forces and acoustic disturbances.

If heavy/stiff cables are to be fixed to the sample, this should be quantified and included in the model.

</p>
|
|
|
|

|
<p>
|

Having better estimation of the disturbances would allows to more precisely estimate the attainable performances.

This should however not change the conclusion of this study nor significantly change the nano-hexapod design.

As was shown during the modal analysis (Section <a href="#org868c28e">2</a>), the micro-station behaves as multiple rigid bodies (granite, translation stage, tilt stage, spindle, hexapod) with some discrete flexibility between those solid bodies.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Thus, a <b>multi-body model</b> is perfect to represent such dynamics.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
To do so, we use the Matlab’s <a href="https://www.mathworks.com/products/simscape.html">Simscape</a> toolbox.
|
|
A small summary of the multi-body Simscape is available <a href="https://tdehaeze.github.io/nass-simscape/simscape.html">here</a> and each of the modeled stage is described <a href="https://tdehaeze.github.io/nass-simscape/simscape_subsystems.html">here</a>.

The mass/inertia of each stage is automatically computed from the imported geometry and the material’s density.

The (6dof) stiffness between two solid bodies is first guessed from either measurements of data-sheets.

Then, the values of the stiffness and damping of each joint is manually tuned until the obtained dynamics is sufficiently close to the measured dynamics.

For the control of the nano-hexapod, we need to now the sample position error (the motion to be compensated) in the frame of the nano-hexapod.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
To do so, we need to perform several computations (summarized in Figure <a href="#orge85a044">23</a>):
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul class="org-ul">
|
|
<li>First, we need to determine the actual <b>wanted pose</b> (3 translations and 3 rotations) of the sample with respect to the granite.
|
|
This is determined from the wanted motion of each micro-station stage.
|
|
Each wanted stage motion is represented by an homogeneous transformation matrix (explain <a href="http://planning.cs.uiuc.edu/node111.html">here</a>), then these matrices are combined to give to total wanted motion of the sample with respect to the granite.</li>
|
|
<li>Then, we need to determine the <b>actual pose</b> of the sample with respect to the granite.
|
|
This will be performed by several interferometers and several computation will be required to compute the pose of the sample from the interferometers measurements.
|
|
However we here directly measure the 3 translations and 3 rotations of the sample using a special simscape block.</li>
|
|
<li>Finally, we need to compare the wanted pose with the measured pose to compute the position error of the sample.
|
|
This position error can be expressed in the frame of the granite, or in the frame of the (rotating) nano-hexapod.
|
|
Both computation are performed.</li>

The position error of the sample with respect to the granite are shown in Figure <a href="#org5c175cd">26</a>.
|
|
It is shown that the X-Y-Z position errors are in the micro-meter range.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
For the rotation around X and Y, the errors are quite small.
|
|
This is explained by the fact that no torque disturbances is considered in the model.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
For the vertical rotation, this is due to the fact that we suppose perfect rotation of the Spindle, and anyway, no measurement of the sample with respect to the granite is made by the interferometers.

The multi-body model developed using Simscape is shown to be sufficiently close to the micro-station dynamics.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
It makes possible to:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul class="org-ul">
|
|
<li>study many effects such as the change of dynamics due to the rotation, the sample mass, etc.</li>
|
|
<li>extract transfer function like \(G\) and \(G_d\)</li>
|
|
<li>simulate experiments to validate performance</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|

This model will be used in the next sections to help the design of the nano-hexapod, to develop the robust control architecture and to perform simulation in order to validate.

As explain before, the nano-hexapod properties (mass, stiffness, architecture, …) will influence:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul class="org-ul">
|
|
<li>the effect of disturbances \(G_d\) (important for the rejection of disturbances)</li>
|
|
<li>the plant dynamics \(G\) (important for the control robustness properties)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Thus, we here wish to find the optimal nano-hexapod properties such that:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul class="org-ul">
|
|
<li>the effect of disturbances is minimized (Section <a href="#org86394ad">5.1</a>)</li>
|
|
<li>the plant uncertainty due to a change of payload mass and experimental conditions is minimized (Section <a href="#org7161bfc">5.2</a>)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The study presented here only consider changes in the nano-hexapod <b>stiffness</b> for two reasons:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul class="org-ul">
|
|
<li>the nano-hexapod mass cannot be change too much, and will anyway be negligible compare to the metrology reflector and the payload masses</li>
|
|
<li>the choice of the nano-hexapod architecture (e.g. orientations of the actuators and implementation of sensors) will be further studied in accord with the control architecture</li>

|
|
<p>
|
|
As will be seen, the nano-hexapod stiffness have a large influence on the sensibility to disturbance (the norm of \(G_d\)).
|
|
For instance, it is quite obvious that a stiff nano-hexapod is better than a soft one when it comes to direct forces applied to the sample such as cable forces.
|

A complete study of the optimal nano-hexapod stiffness for the minimization of disturbance sensibility <a href="https://tdehaeze.github.io/nass-simscape/optimal_stiffness_disturbances.html">here</a> and summarized below.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The sensibility to the spindle’s vibration for all the considered nano-hexapod stiffnesses (from \(10^3\,[N/m]\) to \(10^9\,[N/m]\)) is shown in Figure <a href="#orga187859">27</a>.
|
|
It is shown that a softer nano-hexapod it better to filter out vertical vibrations of the spindle.
|
|
More precisely, is start to filters the vibration at the first suspension mode of the payload on top of the nano-hexapod.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The same conclusion is made for vibrations of the translation stage.

|
|
The sensibilities to ground motion in the Y and Z directions are shown in Figure <a href="#orge547c72">28</a>.
|
|
We can see that above the suspension mode of the nano-hexapod, the norm of the transmissibility is close to one until the suspension mode of the granite.
|
|
Thus, a stiff nano-hexapod is better for reducing the effect of ground motion at low frequency.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
It will be further suggested that using soft mounts for the granite can greatly lower the sensibility to ground motion.

|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
However, lowering the sensibility to some disturbance at a frequency where its effect is already small compare to the other disturbances sources is not really interesting.
|
|
What is more important than comparing the sensitivity to disturbances, is thus to compare the obtain power spectral density of the sample’s position error.
|
|
From the Power Spectral Density of all the sources of disturbances identified in Section <a href="#orgc63f45d">3</a>, we compute what would be the Power Spectral Density of the vertical motion error for all the considered nano-hexapod stiffnesses (Figure <a href="#org2ea5963">29</a>).
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
We can see that the most important change is in the frequency range 30Hz to 300Hz where a stiffness smaller than \(10^5\,[N/m]\) greatly reduces the sample’s vibrations.

If we look at the Cumulative amplitude spectrum of the vertical error motion in Figure <a href="#org0526eaf">30</a>, we can observe that a soft hexapod (\(k < 10^5 - 10^6\,[N/m]\)) helps reducing the high frequency disturbances, and thus a smaller control bandwidth will suffice to obtain the wanted performance.

One of the most important design goal is to obtain a system that is <b>robust</b> to all changes in the system.
|
|
Therefore, we have to identify all changes that might occurs in the system and choose the nano-hexapod stiffness such that the uncertainty to these changes is minimized.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The uncertainty in the system can be caused by:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul class="org-ul">
|
|
<li>A change in the <b>Support’s compliance</b> (complete analysis <a href="https://tdehaeze.github.io/nass-simscape/uncertainty_support.html">here</a>): if the micro-station dynamics is changing due to the change of parts or just because of aging effects, the feedback system should remains stable and the obtained performance should not change</li>
|
|
<li>A change in the <b>Payload mass/dynamics</b> (complete analysis <a href="https://tdehaeze.github.io/nass-simscape/uncertainty_payload.html">here</a>): the sample’s mass is ranging from \(1\,kg\) to \(50\,kg\)</li>
|
|
<li>A change of <b>experimental condition</b> such as the micro-station’s pose or the spindle rotation (complete analysis <a href="https://tdehaeze.github.io/nass-simscape/uncertainty_experiment.html">here</a>)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
All these uncertainties will limit the attainable bandwidth and hence the obtained performance.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
In the next sections, the effect of each change on the obtained uncertainty is quantified and conclusions are made on the optimal stiffness for robustness properties.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Note that only the dynamics from forces applied by the nano-hexapod to the measured sample’s position by the metrology are compared.
|
|
This is because it is the most important dynamics for robustness and performance properties.
|
|
However, the dynamics from forces to sensors located in the nano-hexapod legs, such as force and relative motion sensors, have also been considered.

It is usually a good idea to maximize the mass, damping and stiffness of the isolation platform in order to be less sensible to the payload dynamics.

The dynamics of the nano-hexapod is not affected by the micro-station dynamics (compliance) when the stiffness of the legs is less than \(10^6\,[N/m]\). When the nano-hexapod is stiff (\(k > 10^7\,[N/m]\)), the compliance of the micro-station appears in the primary plant.
