Abstract

The measurement of small displacements on the nanometric scale demands metrological systems of high accuracy and precision. In this context, interferometer-based displacement measurements have become the main tools used for traceable dimensional metrology. The different industrial applications in which small displacement measurements are employed requires the use of online measurements, high speed processes, open architecture control systems, as well as good adaptability to specific process conditions. The main contribution of this work is the development of a smart sensor for large displacement measurement based on phase measurement which achieves high accuracy and resolution, designed to be used with a commercial heterodyne interferometer. The system is based on a low-cost Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) allowing the integration of several functions in a single portable device. This system is optimal for high speed applications where online measurement is needed and the reconfigurability feature allows the addition of different modules for error compensation, as might be required by a specific application.

<p>The measurement of small displacements on the nanometric scale demands metrological systems of high accuracy and precision. In this context, interferometer-based displacement measurements have become the main tools used for traceable dimensional metrology. The different industrial applications in which small displacement measurements are employed requires the use of online measurements, high speed processes, open architecture control systems, as well as good adaptability to specific process conditions. The main contribution of this work is the development of a smart sensor for large displacement measurement based on phase measurement which achieves high accuracy and resolution, designed to be used with a commercial heterodyne interferometer. The system is based on a low-cost Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) allowing the integration of several functions in a single portable device. This system is optimal for high speed applications where online measurement is needed and the reconfigurability feature allows the addition of different modules for error compensation, as might be required by a specific application.</p>

<title>Introduction</title>
<p>In the recent evolution of different industrial processes, the measurement of small nanometric scale displacements demands metrological systems of high accuracy and precision, even in the toughest environments. Interferometry-based displacement measurements, particularly those using the dual-frequency laser feedback effect interferometer considered in [
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b1-sensors-11-07710">1</xref>
], have become the main instrument employed for traceable dimensional metrology. Displacement measurement systems based on this technique usually achieve a resolution of 79.1 nm. However, higher resolution is required in the most recent high-precision measurement applications. In this context increasing the resolution of nanometric measurements remains an open problem [
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b2-sensors-11-07710">2</xref>
]. On the other hand an acceptable measurement speed is also desirable in modern applications [
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b3-sensors-11-07710">3</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b4-sensors-11-07710">4</xref>
] and the use of high-speed electronic systems can solve this necessity.</p>
<p>To achieve the desirable measurement resolutions the performance of the interferometric system has to be improved by reducing the effects of any factors that contribute to the noise-level increase and by eliminating system deviations caused by environmental variables, which become more significant at high resolutions. These factors can be reduced by improving the interferometer optical configuration or by compensating the external effects into the electronic measurement system, as already noted in [
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b5-sensors-11-07710">5</xref>
]. Other proposals differ from this methodology and use image processing methods [
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b6-sensors-11-07710">6</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b7-sensors-11-07710">7</xref>
], but with a considerable increase of the processing time.</p>
<p>More recent approaches to improve measurement systems include those based on modification of the physical characteristics of the interferometric system, as in the case of [
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b8-sensors-11-07710">8</xref>
], where a system based on the principle of total internal reflection (TIR) and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) using a right-angle prism with a four-layer device [prism-titanium(Ti)-gold(Au)-air] was used to reach resolutions of 0.45 nm. However, the displacement range is limited to ±500 nm and the results are unsuitable for most industrial applications. Also in [
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b9-sensors-11-07710">9</xref>
] a new enhanced interferometer setup based on a mechanically and thermally, highly-stable glass ceramic was designed. The noise level remains below 5 pm/√Hz and it is useful for offline applications since it operates at a frequency above 0.01 Hz. Other proposals focus on compensating and controlling the variables which affect the physical characteristics of the optical system. For example, in [
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b10-sensors-11-07710">10</xref>
] a high-resolution and high-accuracy dilatometer using a heterodyne interferometer is developed, but since the thermal effects are controlled in a vacuum chamber to measure the coefficient of thermal expansion, the system cannot be considered portable. Other methodologies have been implemented in which different resolutions are obtained from interferometric systems. In this context, Simon
<italic>et al.</italic>
[
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b5-sensors-11-07710">5</xref>
] presented a real-time high resolution interferometer. The system achieves a resolution of 20 nm at speeds of 2 m/s based in a homodyne laser interferometer. This type of interferometer shows some disadvantages compared to heterodyne systems, mainly the impossibility to measure continuously. Zhang
<italic>et al.</italic>
[
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b2-sensors-11-07710">2</xref>
] presented a system for displacement measurements based on a microcontroller and a field programmable gate array (FPGA) with a theoretical resolution of 0.791 nm. Since the processing is done by separate devices, the processing speed is greater than 32 μs, which is considered unsuitable for online applications. Other systems improve the sensitivity, but greatly decrease the speed of measurement. This is the case of document [
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b11-sensors-11-07710">11</xref>
], where an all-digital phasemeter for precision length measurements using heterodyne laser interferometry is presented. The developed sensitivity is on the order of 0.5 pm/√Hz, but at frequencies of 10 Hz, which make the system unusable for online applications. Although high resolution interferometric systems have been developed the speed of these systems is slow, making them effective only for applications where online measurements are not required. For online positioning control a nano-positioning system using pulse wide approach with a reported precision of ±20 nm was proposed in [
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b12-sensors-11-07710">12</xref>
]. A digital signal processor (DSP) is used as a control unit, but error compensation for environmental variables was not considered. Other proposed systems require specific environmental conditions and therefore cannot be implemented in all the areas of interest. Furthermore commercially available interferometric systems are typically used to measure displacements in air [
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b13-sensors-11-07710">13</xref>
].</p>
<p>One of the main disadvantages of the works previously discussed lies in the lack of online processing capability. Interferometric systems require complex processing to compensate and reduce the effects of uncertainty [
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b14-sensors-11-07710">14</xref>
], then it is essential to carry out an on-line processing of the variables involved and to include self-adjustment algorithms. This requires the use of intelligent and smart sensors which are capable of processing measured variables in an integrated system where this feature can be performed according to the definition of smart sensor [
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b15-sensors-11-07710">15</xref>
]. The use of smart sensors in industrial applications that require online monitoring has been extensively studied, and due to the high processing capability required they have been implemented into an FPGA, for example for motion dynamics estimation based on an encoder sensor [
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b16-sensors-11-07710">16</xref>
], tool-wear monitoring using accelerometers [
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b17-sensors-11-07710">17</xref>
], and the fusion of these sensors for complex estimation of tool-wear [
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b18-sensors-11-07710">18</xref>
], also for mechatronics there are sensors based on interferometry reported in [
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b19-sensors-11-07710">19</xref>
], such as an optomechatronic sensor for the detection of multi-degrees-of-freedom displacements of a remote target.</p>
<p>Nowadays nanometric motion quality, which is defined in terms of precision, accuracy, and resolution, are vital to several existing and emerging nano-scale microscopy, manipulation, and manufacturing methods, with less than 10 nm of accuracy [
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b20-sensors-11-07710">20</xref>
], since it comprises sensors and electronics, nanometric metrology systems are essential. For instance, in metallographic analyses there are several necessities in terms of motion quality [
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b21-sensors-11-07710">21</xref>
], summarized in
<xref ref-type="table" rid="t1-sensors-11-07710">Table 1</xref>
.</p>
<p>The contribution of this work is the development of a smart sensor based on phase measurement achieving high accuracy and high resolution on the order of nanometers that is designed to be used with a heterodyne interferometer. The phase measurement is made by combining two techniques to measure the fractional phase into an interference light fringe. The first technique is based on digital counting and the second on analog-to-digital conversion and processing. Since both techniques require complex processing capabilities, the measurement system is implemented in a low-cost FPGA. The novelty of this work is the fusion of these techniques and the implementation in an FPGA allowing the system to achieve high speed measurements, on the order of MHz, therefore the system is optimal for high speed and for a wide range of measurement applications, while the reconfigurability feature allows the addition of different modules for error compensation as required by each application. In this case a self-wavelength deviation compensation is implemented to achieve better accuracy; furthermore the phase measurement system is low-cost and portable.</p>

<title>Interferometry</title>
<p>Optical interferometry is considered an optical path differences measurement technique and its bases were mainly established by Michelson in the last decades of the nineteenth century. Displacement interferometry is usually based on the Michelson configuration or some variant of that basic design. Displacement measurement, being simply a change in length, is usually carried out by counting the number of fringes as the object being measured is displaced. The displacement is measured as an integer number of whole fringes and a fringe fraction [
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b22-sensors-11-07710">22</xref>
].</p>
<p>Homodyne and heterodyne are two different methods of interferometric systems depending on the type of the laser used. A single frequency laser source is used in homodyne systems and for heterodyne systems, there are two laser beams with two different frequencies generating different methods: Acousto-optical modulation (AOM) and Zeeman effect.
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="f1-sensors-11-07710">Figure 1</xref>
shows a heterodyne laser system where the beat laser beam before entering the interferometer is proportional to the next signal as a function of the difference in frequency and phase of the two beams that are perpendicular as shown in

The primary sensor includes a commercial He-Ne laser head and an optical heterodyne interferometer and the laser head includes an integrated photodetector which produces an electric output for the measured beam and for the reference beam as well. The signal conditioning includes two stages: digital and analog signal conditioning. The digital stage provides the appropriate conditioning of the laser signals, a digital driver changes the voltage level of the analog signal, a high speed Schmitt trigger inverter changes the signal to the appropriate voltage level with the same path delay for both the reference and measurement signals. The analog signal conditioning includes a high speed dual channel data acquisition system (DAS) with low distortion differential amplifiers to allow the minimum noise distortion of the signals received from the laser. The FPGA-based signal processing unit contains a measurement IP core to estimate the displacement of the mirror by counting the number of cycles forward or backward from the measurement signal with respect to the reference signal. This unit also contains a phase estimation IP core to determine the phase between both signals together with a DAS driver. This processing unit also can include interfaces for displaying and user communication.</p>

<title>Displacement Estimation IP Core Processor</title>
<p>The central part in the processing unit is the measurement and displacement estimation performed in an IP core. The system is divided in two IP cores working separately, the first IP core is an all-digital count fringe system, shown in
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="f3-sensors-11-07710">Figure 3</xref>
. This core counts the total cycles of both signals, reference and measurement. When the measurement changes its frequency the counter is delayed or advanced and the difference of counters provides the amount of fringes displaced. During a cycle this difference changes due to the signals phase, so in order to maintain the current count a 32-bit register stores the data at the beginning of the cycle. This architecture gives an exact count of the total fringes in real time. To estimate the fractional part, a difference between the actual count and last difference counter is performed, this difference results in a 1-bit modulated signal which represents the phase in PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) with the same beat frequency. To determine the duty cycle of the modulated signal that is proportional to the phase, a demodulator system is implemented. The demodulator is based on a dual clock edge counter, the counter is active during the high level of PWM signal, an AND gate is used for this purpose, then the count is synchronized with the measurement signal due to a parallel register. A processing block performs the correct estimation of the displacement depending of the present frequency of the input signals. This displacement compensator measures the signal frequency of each cycle to compensate the wavelength variations as established in [
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b13-sensors-11-07710">13</xref>
], although several blocks can be implemented in order to compensate other errors due to reconfigurable capabilities of the system.</p>
<p>The second IP core is based on a phase estimation (A block diagram of this system is presented in
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="f4-sensors-11-07710">Figure 4</xref>
). The analog signal is digitalized by a 14-bit dual-flash ADC at 20 MHz,
<italic>Δf</italic>
represents the frequency difference and,
<italic>V
<sub>1</sub>
</italic>
and
<italic>V
<sub>2</sub>
</italic>
the amplitude of the signals. The converted data is normalized in order to extract the inverse sine function; this function is calculated by a simple look-up table (LUT) and the result is the approximation of the angle of each signal. The measurement and reference signals have different phase but the same frequency, so the angle difference represents the phase along each cycle. In a complete beat frequency cycle there are up to seven conversions from the ADC, for these processed samples it is necessary to determinate the maximum angle to discriminate the zero computed phase when both signals cross in time. When the phase is calculated, a displacement estimation process is performed where some compensation can be reconfigured if the application demands more stability. For this estimation the resolution depends on the number of samples in a beat frequency cycle and on the precision of the inverse sine function.</p>
<p>The resulting displacement is obtained by both methodologies calculating a value from a simple weighted function of the displacement. The trigonometric estimation calculates the displacement with certain delay that depends on the ADC conversion time and trigonometric calculation, the total delay of this part is 414 ns. To allow the correct measurement it is necessary to add a control module for delaying the digital estimation in order to synchronize the measured data in time. For steady measurements the displacement can be processed with a digital filter in order to reduce the noise level.</p>
<p>The theoretical resolution of this system depends on the laser wavelength
<italic>λ</italic>
, the beat frequency
<italic>f
<sub>b</sub>
</italic>
and the digital system clock frequency
<italic>f
<sub>clk</sub>
</italic>
. The beat frequency is estimated by the difference of the two polarized beam frequencies as follows:

<p>The experimental setup is shown in

, which displays the arrangement of the optics for both experiments. A calibrating system is used as primary sensor, which contains a two-frequency laser calibrator 5519A with vacuum wavelength of 632.991354 nm, a linear interferometer 10766A with a fundamental optical resolution of λ/2 (316.5 nm) and two linear retroreflectors 10767A, all from Agilent Technologies [
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b24-sensors-11-07710">24</xref>
]. The data acquisition is performed by a 14-bit 2-channel AD9248 ADC from Analog devices with maximum sampling rate of 20 MHz [
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b25-sensors-11-07710">25</xref>
]. The signal compensation module uses four low distortion differential ADC drivers AD8138 both from Analog devices [
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b26-sensors-11-07710">26</xref>
]. The signals obtained from the laser are sent to the smart processor to estimate the linear displacement. The smart processor is implemented in a proprietary Spartan 3E XC3S1600E FPGA platform running at 125 MHz developed by the authors. A communication interface unit is added to the smart processor in order to send the monitored signals to a personal computer to be visualized and processed for analysis.</p>

<title>Experimentation, Results and Discussion</title>
<p>Two experiments to validate the maximum resolution and the accuracy were performed and are presented in this section. In the first experiment the resolution of the smart sensor is evaluated using a calibrated pattern and a metallographic microscope. In the second experiment the accuracy of the system is determinate by measure the displacement of the material due to the linear thermal expansion.

<title>Precision</title>
<p>In this experiment the precision of the smart sensor is evaluated by using a stage micrometer KR-812 with NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) traceable calibration from microscope depot with a minimum scale of 20 μm.
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="f6-sensors-11-07710">Figure 6</xref>

<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b27-sensors-11-07710">27</xref>
].</p>
<p>Using the stage micrometer as reference in this experiment movements of 20 μm were performed as shown in
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="f7-sensors-11-07710">Figure 7</xref>
.</p>
<p>Forty measurement runs were repeated in order to have enough tests for determining the system precision, obtaining a mean μ = 20.03 μm and a standard deviation σ = 0.02317 μm. For a 99.73% certainty, in a 20 μm displacement, the system has a precision of 3σ = 0.06950 μm.</p>

<p>Experimentally, the expansion coefficients are usually obtained by measuring the dilation over a finite temperature interval,

<p>For temperature measurements a Fluke 52II dual input thermometer with an accuracy of 0.05% was used [
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b29-sensors-11-07710">29</xref>
]. The material was cooled to a temperature of 13 °C until stabilization was achieved for measuring the temperature at two extremes of the material. Then measurements were made for displacement and temperature during warming by room temperature.

<p>The theoretical linear expansion is calculated using
<xref ref-type="disp-formula" rid="FD9">Equation (9)</xref>
resulting in an expansion of 0.0247 μm per 0.1 °C. For this experiment the resulting displacement derivative is μ = 0.0279 μm and σ = 0.0115 μm for 256 measurements. The accuracy of the system for a maximum mean error is 9.9 nm for a measured range of 293 nm.</p>

<title>Conclusions</title>
<p>The smart sensor based on phase measurement developed in this work has the capability to measure in the nanometric range using a heterodyne interferometer. The novelty of this work is the fusion of the digital count and the analog to digital conversion techniques which provides a resolution of 3.4 nm, an accuracy of 9.9 nm and a precision of 69.5 nm in a 20 μm displacement for long range displacements. Furthermore, the comparison of reported methodologies shows that this proposal has the lowest processing time within 357 ns and the widest range of measurement. Although most works do not report the accuracy, the developed system is better than the references that report accuracy. The range of measurement that this system can perform is set by the optics, in this case the limit is 80 m; however, the system is capable to process measurements at greater distances with the appropriate optics and with a resolution of 3.4 nm. Tests performed in the experiment where made within a 3 m displacement range which is suitable for most of industrial applications. Moreover, additional modules for error compensation can be added to the proposed FPGA-based smart sensor as the application demands. Since the system is portable and because all the features gathered together, it is optimal for most industrial applications.</p>
