Abstract

For our rotational spectroscopy research, a high vacuum system is designed to accomodate the large Fabry-Perot cavity resonator for a Balle-Flygare type Fourier transform micowave (BF-FTMW) spectrometer. To cover a broad frequency span of 3 - 40 GHz, the diameter of MW reflection mirrors are ~20 inches. A large vacuum chamber with a torispherical cap on the one end is designed using the Solidworks. Mechanical components with various industrial standards, including ASME, ISO, DIN, and JIS are used in this vacuum system degsign to compatible with all sorts of research and industrial standards.
