Abstract

The proposed microwave spectrometer design, utilizing a Balle-Flygare type cavity Fourier transform, will be modeled on SolidWorks to provide a comprehensive blueprint in the manufacturing process. The Fabry-Perot cavity resonator, integrated with torispherical cap mirrors, will be digitally fabricated, optimizing the cost-effective vacuum chamber closure. Various torispherical domes, such as DIN 28011, ASME standards, and high crowns (80/10, 80/6, 90/8), will be assessed for reflector diameter, volume, and focus length. Different kinds of ASME standard flanges will be added to the chamber, and have the potential to be used in several applications, such as the use of diffusion pumps. This integrated approach ensures a more complex, yet precise representation of the design in the transition from concept to physical construction.
