8-40. Laser
Assembly
Optics
8-41. The laser assembly optics ensures correct laser frequency polarizations and also collimates the
laser beam. When the laser beam leaves the laser assembly, the horizontal component is
polarized parallel to the base of the
HP5501B
. The vertical component is polarized
perpendicular to the horizontal component. The laser beam is collimated to minimize variations
in beam diameter as it travels away from the laser head.
8-42. Reference
Receiver
8-43. The beam splitters of the A6 Sampler Assembly direct some of the laser light through a second
45° polarizer and onto another photodiode. Because of the polarization orientation, the beam
power after this polarizer varies sinusoidally at the difference frequency of the two laser
frequency components. The beam power at the difference frequency is converted to current by
the photodiode and amplified to TTL levels. The frequency of the TTL output is the reference
frequency. The reference receiver electronics also provide a digital signal called REFERENCE
RECEIVER ON (REF ON) that tells the state machine the laser is working properly
8-44. Shutter
Mechanism
8-45. The exit aperture shutter of the shutter (turret) assembly has three positions. The first blocks the
laser beam entirely; the second allows a small diameter laser beam to exit for optical alignment
purposes; and the third passes the entire laser beam.

8-47. REAR PANEL LED INDICATORS
8-48. The diagnostic LED’s, mounted on the
HP5501B
's rear panel, provide status information on
power supply input (±15 Volts), fuses, laser output and tuning, and the reference frequency
output. See Figure 3-2 for a more detailed description of the LED’s.
