High performance laser shutter using a hard disk drive voice-coil actuator
Voice-coil motors in computer hard disk drives are shown to make excellent mechanical shutters for light beams. Shutter speeds in excess of 10 mm / ms are attained, allowing switching of a focused beam in under 10 μ s . Aperture size can be up to 32 mm . As little as 1 mW of power is required for...

are attained, allowing switching of a focused beam in under

s
. Aperture size can be up to
32
mm
. As little as
1
mW
of power is required for shutter operation. The shutter can be driven with a sinusoidal signal to switch at up to
100
Hz
. The shutter is also suitable for x-ray applications. Essentially no modification of the drive or actuator is required for most types of operation. |
