Abstract
Abstract
We report on the qualification of a piezo-based linear stage
for the manipulation of positions of dielectric discs in the booster
of the MADMAX axion dark matter search experiment. A first
demonstrator of the piezo drives, specifically developed for MADMAX,
was tested at room temperature as well as at cryogenic temperatures
down to 4.5 K and inside strong magnetic fields up to 5.3 T. These
qualification measurements prove that the piezo-based linear stage
is suited for MADMAX and fulfills the requirements.
