Abstract
Optical, opto-mechanical and electro-optical elements (OE) of a Laser resonance assembly (LRA) are positioned and fixated in close proximity on an assembly plate by clamping the OE in a vacuum chuck that holds the OE on a clamping portion on the very top of it. The OE is brought into the predetermined position while a lateral attaching surface of the OE is kept in a predetermined angle relative to the assembly plate. A side mount is placed between the mirror and the assembly plate after an UV-curing adhesive has been applied. The attaching surface s and the adhesive have a specific relation between areal extension, surface roughness, uncured viscosity and uncured cohesive force.
