Aluminum alloy for mirror substrates is known to be easily machinable, but not polishable due to its ductility. A harder material, Ni, is usually electrolessly coated on an A1 substrate to increase the surface hardness for optical polishing. Aspheric metal secondary mirror without a conventional polishing process, the surface roughness of Ra=10nm, and the form error of Ra=λ/12(λ=632.8nm) has been required. The purpose of this research is to find the optimum machining conditions for reflector cutting of electroless-Ni coated A1 alloy and apply the SPDT technique to the manufacturing of ultra precision optical components of metal aspheric reflector.

This paper describes the design, fabrication and experiments of surface-micromachined aluminum micromirror array with hidden pin-joints. Instead of the conventional elastic spring components as connection between mirror plate and supporting structure, we used pin-joint composed of pin and staples to support the mirror plate. The placement of pin-joint under the mirror plate makes large active surface area possible. These flexureless micromirrors are driven by electrostatic force. As the mirror plate has discrete deflection angles, the device can be ap;lied to adaptive optics and digitally-operating optical applications. Four-level metal structural layers and semi-cured photoresist sacrificial layers were used in the fabrication process and sacrificial layers were removed by oxygen plasma ashing. Static characteristics of fabricated samples were measured and compared with modeling results.

Thermal emissivity is generally affected by surface situation of material such as roughness. In this study, the effect of surface roughness on measuring thermal emissivity is experimented. And emissivity measurement method and equipment using hemisperical mirror is also reviewed. As the result of this research, thermal emissivity increased as long as increasing surface roughness. So, surface roughness is a essential check point when we measure the emissivity.

This paper is described about the technique of ultra-precision machining for a infrared camera aspheric mirror. A 200 mm diameter aspheric mirror was fabricated by SPDTM.

고해상도 원격관측용 카메라오 설계된 비축 3반사 광학계의 제3거울인 타원면(원추계수>0) 형상측정 Null 렌즈를 설계하였다. Null 렌즈 설계방식으로는 측정감도는 2배로 높으면서 작은 기준 평면경을 사용하는 혼합방식을 제안하였다. 혼합방식과 autostigmatic 방식으로 설계한 Null 렌즈의 광파면 왜곡 민감도를 비교하여 혼합방식이 보다 유리한 Null 측정 광학게임을 제시하였다.

In this study, we fabricated surface micromachined mirror that is actuated by magnetic force. The mirror was fabricated with Al, and Ni was electroplated on the surface of Al mirror as a magnetic material. The fabricated mirror is actuated by magnetic force of simple solenoid. The maximum deflection angle is about 70$^{\circ}$ when the applied magnetic field is about $1.5{\times}10^4$A/m.

Compared to one made of glass, an aluminum mirror features light weight, compact design, low cost, and quick manufacturing. Reflective mirrors and supporting structures can be made from the same material, to improve the athermal performance of the system. With the rapid development of ultraprecise machining technologies, the field of applications for aluminum mirrors has been developed rapidly. However, most of them are rotationally symmetric in shape, and are used for infrared applications. In this paper, the design and manufacture of an off-axis aluminum mirror used for a three-mirror-anastigmat (TMA) optical system at visible wavelengths is presented. An optimized, lightweight design provides a weight reduction of more than 40%, while the surface deformation caused by earth's gravity can meet the required tolerance. The two pieces of an off-axis mirror can be diamond-turned simultaneously in one setup. The centrifugal deformation of the off-axis mirror during single-point diamond turning (SPDT) is simulated through the finite-element method (FEM). The techniques used to overcome centrifugal deformation are thoroughly described in this paper, and the surface error is reduced to about 1% of the original value. After post-polishing, the form error is $1/30{\lambda}$ RMS and the surface roughness is better than 5 nm Ra, which can meet the requirements for visible-light imaging.
