A Planar Laser Diffraction Encoder in Littrow Configuration for 2D Nanometric Positioning

This paper presents a novel design of a planar encoder based on the principle of diffractive interferometry. The system is capable of measuring the two-dimensional displacement of the planar grating of any size. It adopts a specially designed optical path that can increase the alignment tolerance be...
