Abstract:
Systems and methods for performing vibration error suppression in a fiber optic gyro sensor. An example system includes a light source, a sensing loop assembly, a photo detector, and a processing component. The light source generates a light signal that is then modulated by the sensing loop assembly and applied to a fiber optic coil in the assembly. The photo detector receives a modulated light signal that is an output of the sensing loop assembly (coil) and generates an analog signal. The processing component converts the generated analog signal into a modulated digital signal, determines an average of the modulated digital signal, determines an intensity modulation amplitude based on the determined average of the modulated digital signal, and re-scales the modulated digital phase signal based on the determined intensity modulation amplitude.
Abstract:
A reticle carrier including a base portion and a cover portion at least partially detachable from the base portion. The base portion and the cover portion are configured to collectively house a reticle in a region collectively defined by the base portion and the cover portion when the base portion and the cover portion are fully attached. At least a portion of an interior surface of at least one of the base portion and the cover portion is treated with a sulfide-absorbing composition, such as silver or a silver-containing alloy.
Abstract:
A workstation comprises a substrate, a cleaning apparatus used for cleaning a mask, and a controller for controlling the cleaning apparatus. The cleaning apparatus comprises a housing having dust-free surroundings, a holder, a cleaner and a blower. The holder, the cleaner and the blower are disposed in the housing. The mask comprises a glass plate with particles adhered thereto and a pellicle. The holder encloses the pellicle and exposes the glass plate with the particles adhered thereto. The cleaner comprises an acting portion used for removing the particle from the glass plate of the substrate. The blower blows a gas to dry the glass plate of the substrate when the particle is removed by the acting portion of the cleaner.

According to one aspect of the present invention, a method for calibrating a fiber optic gyroscope is provided. A method is provided for calibrating a fiber optic gyroscope. First and second portions of light from a first light source are propagated through a fiber optic line in respective first and second directions. A first voltage that causes a predetermined phase shift between the first and second portions of the light from the first light source is calculated. First and second portions of light from a second light source are propagated through the fiber optic line in the respective first and second directions. A second voltage that causes the predetermined phase shift between the first and second portions of the light from the second light is calculated. A difference between the first voltage and the second voltage is then calculated.
Abstract:
A phase jump amplitude and timing controller is used in a fiber optic gyroscope for suppressing color noise. The phase jump amplitude and timing controller inserts a phase/voltage jump into the feedback signal of the loop closure electronics of the fiber optic gyroscope. This phase/voltage jump breaks the repeated pattern of the drive signal. The IOC time-dependent characteristics are totally eliminated by the randomized feedback signal because no repeated signal is applied to the IOC. The randomized amplitude is preferably within the full ±π phase such that the optical errors average to zero. A fixed frequency higher than the interested spectral region can shift the color noise to higher frequency. A randomized frequency can spread the color noise over full spectrum, and totally eliminate the RDS. In other words, the color noise caused by the nonlinearity of the driving circuit and IOC spreads out over a wide range of spectrum such that no distinct frequency peaks are apparent in the spectral domain.
Abstract:
Producing seamless tiled images from multiple displays includes measuring a luminance profile of each of the displays, computing a desired luminance profile for each of the displays, and determining a spatial gradient profile of each of the displays based on the measured luminance profile and the computed desired luminance profile. The determined spatial gradient profile is applied to a spatial filter to be inserted into each of the displays to produce the seamless tiled display image.
