ABSTRACT:
This invention supports a moving mirror in an interferometer, so that movement is restricted to a linear movement perpendicular to the plane of the mirror, and provides a means to impart a motion to the mirror. Two flat springs are connected at their centers with a beam. A mirror is affixed flush against the center portion of one of the springs, and a frame holds the edges of the springs fixed so that the beam and mirror can only move perpendicular to the plane of the springs and mirror. A voice coil is attached to the center of the other spring to impart motion to the beam and mirror.
