Portable Optical Tweezers Kit

Chapter 5: Setup and Adjustment

Rev B, February 15, 2022

Page 31

Finally, attach the kinematic mount with the laser source from Section 5.1.1. To do this,

feed the ER10 cage rods through the lower holes of the kinematic mount (you may need

to loosen the KC1-T’s rod locking screws first). Insert the ER3 cage rods into the upper

holes so that they fill the rest of the flexure locks. You may want to leave a small gap

between the adjacent cage rods. Fix all of the KC1-T’s cage rod locking screws. You may

fix the CP45(/M)’s and CP45T(/M)’s flexure locks. However, in our tests, the flexure locks

have demonstrated a sufficient clamping force without tightening the flexure mechanism

(which makes taking the expander section out easier).

Use a level to adjust the height of the post in its post holder. The cage segment

needs to be horizontal to avoid serious problems during alignment/adjustment!
