Abstract
In this article, a small-displacement sensing system based on the surface plasmon resonance technology in heterodyne interferometry is proposed and evaluated. The basic sensing unit is composed of a prism assembly and a displacement probe. The prism assembly consists of a halfwave (λ/2) plate, two right-angle prisms and two rotation stages. The small-displacement sensor is with high sensitivity and resolution due to the attenuated total reflection effect in heterodyne interferometry. Besides, we can obtain the results of the experiment in a distant place by uses of the USB data acquisition card (DAQ card) and a ZigBee module. It can be found that the displacement resolution of the small-displacement sensor can reach 0.155nm by numerical simulation. The small-displacement sensor has some merits, e.g., easy operation, high measurement accuracy, high resolution and rapid measurement, etc.
