Abstract
Hydroxide Catalysis Bonding (HCB) is an advanced technique used for bonding silicate-based materials. This technique is widely used in gravitational wave detection, playing a crucial role in ground-based gravitational wave detectors like LIGO, as well as in space-based gravitational wave detectors such as LISA and TianQin. These areas require precise arrangement and positioning of optical elements, which means HCB technique must offer sufficient settling time to assemble these components. This study employs a non-destructive and optical method to evaluate the settling time of HCB by measuring the bond’s reflectivity based on the multiple-beam interference within the bond. The results show a clear relationship between the settling time of HCB and the concentration of the bonding solution. Furthermore, it was observed that the settling time for sodium silicate, which is a secondary dissociated solution, is shorter than that for a fully dissociated hydroxide solution like NaOH and KOH. Specifically, the average settling time for sodium silicate utilized in this research was approximately 653 seconds. These results offer valuable insights for optimizing assembly methodologies in fields employing HCB, enhancing the precision and reliability of optical systems.
