Advances in Corrective Finishing of Optical Moulds for Future Aspheric Hard X-ray Telescopes

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

An innovative two-step freeform finishing method is presented, combining fluid jet and precessed bonnet polishing on a common CNC platform. Corrective and super-smoothing capabilities are demonstrated, with application to manufacturing of hard X-ray replication moulds.
