To account for thermal influences the heart of the optical synchronization system is based on an optical table made out of SuperInvar.

Free-electron-lasers like the upcoming European XFEL demand highly reliable optical synchronization in range of few femtoseconds. The well known optical synchronization system at FLASH had to be re-engineered to meet XFEL requirements comprising demands like ten times larger lengths and raised numbers of optically synchronized instruments. These requirements directly convert to optomechanical precision and have yielded in a specialized design accounting for economical manufacturing technologies. These efforts resulted in reduced spatial dimensions, improved optical repeatability, maintainability and even reduced production costs. To account for thermal influences the heart of the optical synchronization system is based on an optical table made out of SuperInvar. To fully exploit its excellent thermal expansion coefficient, mechanical details need to be taken into account. This work presents the design and its realization of the re-engineered optomechanical parts of the optical synchronization system, comprising mounting techniques, link stabilization units and optical delay lines for high drift suppression.
