Control of Mid-spatial-frequency Errors for Large Steep Aspheric Surfaces

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Control of mid-spatial-frequency errors on precision optical surfaces is very important for next-generation optical systems. We present results of smoothing experiments and of polishing runs utilizing figuring and smoothing for the 8.4m GMT off-axis segment.
