PALM-3000Opto-mech Work
• Since last October, we have:– Completed the optical bench requirements– Completed the optical design for PALM3000– Passed PDR– Completed the majority of the mechanical
components – Procured most of the required optics– Completed acceptance testing of the 3388-DM at
Xinetics– Laid out the I&T testbed at Caltech
PALM-3000P3k Layout
PALM-3000Bench Mechanics
Newport mirror mounts with 6” mirror

FM2
• Optical mounts have been designed and manufactured
• OAP mounts and the bench enclosure still need to designed

PALM-3000DM3368 (HODM)
• DM is behind schedule with a current delivery expected in Nov 09
• The P3k DM team spent 3 weeks at Xinetics integrating the driver electronics, cabling and mirror for the 3388-actuator DM system.
• Mirror Results– We verified that all the actuators are connected and respond to bias
voltage
– We can actively control 3128 out of 3388 actuators and all of those respond to commands as expected*
– The full stroke is between 1um and 1.4um which meets our requirements
– The mirror surface had significant wavefront error (more than 2um P-V surface)
PALM-3000Repolish Status
• To remedy the large static surface errors, we decided to have Xinetics repolish the mirror before shipping it to us.
• The measured data still show the dimples but they are smaller by an order of magnitude
• Changes in humidity are a concern because they will cause the dimples to change
PALM-3000Expected Surface at Bias After Rework
• Repolishing was done in an unpowered state, so any error that is induced by bringing the mirror to bias will be present after repolishing as well
• This surface is within the control range of the actuators
Predicted control using measured influence functions
PALM-3000Schedule
• November– Testing HOWFS– Testing DM
• December– Testing HOWFS and DM in the testbed
• January– Testing HOWFS and DM with RTC
• February– Closed-loop control with RTC in testbed
