{"title":"Visible Light Diffraction Image Evaluation of Grazing Incidence Optical Systems","authors":"P. Takacs, J. Colbert","doi":"10.1364/oft.1985.thbb1","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1364/oft.1985.thbb1","url":null,"abstract":"Optical systems designed to utilize extreme ultraviolet (EUV) and x-ray photons from synchrotron radiation (SR) light sources with grazing incidence optics generally have entrance apertures that are long in the horizontal plane and narrow in the vertical plane. Apertures that are 1 mrad high by several milliradians wide at a distance of 10 meters from the source are typical. A point source illuminated by a red He-Ne laser beam imaged through a system with this aperture and focal length results in a 1.2 mm high image that is severely broadened by diffraction. Component alignment with visible light is difficult when the diffraction limit is so severe. The use of visible light for system alignment is, however, a necessity, because alignment under actual operating conditions and at operating wavelengths in ultra high vacuum chambers is totally impractical. Except for rare instances, components are not accessible for alignment adjustments. How, then, can we make use of the information available in the severely diffraction-limited visible image to assess the performance of our system at x-ray wavelengths?","PeriodicalId":142307,"journal":{"name":"Optical Fabrication and Testing Workshop","volume":"134 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133733151","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Ion Beam Milling As Part of a Deterministic Approach to Optical Fabrication","authors":"Charles Egert, K. W. Hylton, J. Gooch, Charles L. Carnal","doi":"10.1364/oft.1992.thc2","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1364/oft.1992.thc2","url":null,"abstract":"Ion beam milling is a deterministic optical fabrication process which allows precise control over the removal of material from the surface of an optical component. A deterministic fabrication process is a well characterized and controllable process capable of directly achieving final figure with minimum number of metrology-fabrication iterations. Examples of more deterministic processes are diamond turning and ductile grinding; polishing is considered less deterministic due to the frequent polishing-metrology iterations that are required during polishing. Several investigators have developed and demonstrated ion milling as a deterministic process for glass and glass-ceramic optical components.1,2 While ion milling is more deterministic, it must be used in conjunction with other processes, typically as the final fabrication step, because of its relatively low material removal rates and inability to reduce surface roughness. Early studies of ion milling relied on polishing processes to prepare the optical surface prior to the final deterministic ion milling operation. These demonstrations of ion milling were also limited to amorphous, glass-like optical materials. A complete manufacturing process based on this approach would therefore be limited by the less-deterministic polishing operation. In this paper we present the results of experiments which relied completely on the deterministic processes of single point turning and ion milling to fabricate gold coated, aluminum mirrors. These experiments produced approximately a factor of two improvement in optical figure for both flat and spherical aluminum mirrors in a single ion milling iteration. Besides demonstrating a deterministic approach to optical fabrication involving ion milling, these experiments also indicate that it is possible to ion mill metallic mirrors provided the mirror is overcoated with a material which can be ion milled. The integration of ion milling with other deterministic fabrication processes, combined with recent ion milling-material studies,3 suggest similar highly deterministic manufacturing processes can be developed for many important optical materials including: electroless nickel, silicon carbide, and several IR transmissive optical materials.","PeriodicalId":142307,"journal":{"name":"Optical Fabrication and Testing Workshop","volume":"66 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132807421","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Optical components are deterministically microground to a very high level of form accuracy (1/5 wave peak to valley) and surface finish (50 Angstroms rms) using a repeatable and predictable computer controlled process. This is a result of the introduction of precision machine tools to optics manufacturing. The surface finish being achieved on optical glass is unprecedented using a production oriented process (cycle time of 10 min./surface) There remains substantial work to be done in understanding and optimizing process parameters for deterministic microgrinding of a wide range of optical materials. A comprehensive process parameter study is being carried out on all of the Opticam machines, including in depth development studies of feeds and speeds, material, tool, and coolant properties, and machine characteristics.
