Grating microstructures can be fabricated on NiP coatings using Single-Point Diamond Turning (SPDT) to enhance the optical performance of mirrors. However, the SPDT process often introduces periodic marks on the surface, increasing surface roughness, causing optical flux loss, and reducing reflectance, which negatively impact the performance of mirrors. In this study, SiO<sub>2</sub>/Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> mixed abrasive is employed for Chemical Mechanical Polishing (CMP) to investigate conformal polishing processes for NiP grating microstructures. The mixed abrasive leverages the advantages of both abrasives: Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> abrasive effectively removes periodic marks and reduces the spatial frequency errors in the 10<sup>1</sup>∼10<sup>2</sup> mm<sup>−1</sup> range, while SiO<sub>2</sub> abrasive further smooths the surface and reduces the spatial frequency errors in the 10<sup>2</sup>∼10<sup>3</sup> mm<sup>−1</sup> range. Through experiments, factors such as Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> particle size, Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> abrasive concentration, pH, and H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> concentration are comprehensively considered to precisely control the synergistic effects of the mechanical removal and chemical reactions of CMP, balancing the optimization of surface quality and conformality of microstructures. By optimizing the polishing slurry and utilizing a combination of soft and hard polishing pads, a uniform RMS roughness of 0.8 nm (scanned area: 218 × 218 μm<sup>2</sup>) was achieved across a 100 mm diameter NiP grating microstructures sample. Importantly, the grating microstructures retained their shape, with only an 84 nm reduction in the grating height and a 12.98 μm increase in the transition area width after polishing. These results highlight the excellent conformal polishing capability of the process. This study provides a promising strategy for the conformal polishing of large-area and high-precision NiP grating microstructures on EUV collector mirrors, while also offering an important reference for the industrial-scale production of other optical microstructures.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54589,"journal":{"name":"Precision Engineering-Journal of the International Societies for Precision Engineering and Nanotechnology","volume":"96 ","pages":"Pages 257-276"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144331261","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The design is based on the switching characteristics of a three-segment fully compliant bistable mechanism (TSFCBM) and the principle of frictional vibration reduction, aiming to improve system stability and reliability through friction damping. Firstly, the nonlinear stiffness of the TSFCBM and the static design relationship of the bistable acceleration switch are analyzed. Secondly, a dynamic model of the bistable acceleration switch under the coupling action of multiple forces, such as inertial force, friction damping force, and elastic force, is established. Then, dynamic characteristic simulations and experiments are conducted. The relative error between the simulation results and the experimentally measured switch closing threshold is less than 6.7 %. Moreover, once the switch is closed, it remains in the closed state even when the acceleration signal disappears, demonstrating good threshold characteristics and reliability of the bistable characteristic switch. Next, based on the above, the features of the half-sine wave acceleration signal that enable the bistable acceleration switch to close stably are further analyzed. Finally, a mathematical model between pulse width and amplitude on the closure boundary is obtained, thereby providing a theoretical basis for the threshold design of the bistable acceleration switch.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54589,"journal":{"name":"Precision Engineering-Journal of the International Societies for Precision Engineering and Nanotechnology","volume":"96 ","pages":"Pages 246-256"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144331269","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of its promising applications lies in the fabrication of purely phase-based transparent structures, which proved to be helpful in micro-optics, optical metrology, nanophotonics, novel microscopy techniques, and many more, via testing, calibrating, or enhancing these modern developing areas. However, achieving an accurate control over the phase properties of written structures, especially across extended printing areas still remains a challenge. In this study, we introduce a feedback-loop correction methodology that is compatible with any TPP fabrication system. Our approach relies firstly on an interferometric measurement of the phase map of printed test-component, performed in ex-situ microscopic system. Then, translating its inverse into the designed phase-influencing features of the fabricated body (refractive index and axial thickness) to further compensate the acknowledged artifacts. By using a Zernike polynomial-based analysis of the measured phase map, we unlock a precise error study and allow an accurate correction of each separated component. Such methodology reduces phase errors by up to a factor of 6, lowering the standard deviation from 5.40 rad to 0.83 rad over a 400 μm diameter area, at a wavelength of 635 nm. This marks a significant advancement in phase control over larger area. To validate the effectiveness of our correction, we fabricate a customized set of phase structures spanning the system's maximum printing area, demonstrating their potential practical applications.

However, conventional machining of Ti6Al4V needs high cutting power owing to the high strength of the alloy. Laser assisted machining (LAM) is a hybrid machining process that can reduce cutting power while machining Ti6Al4V. During the process, a laser heating source constantly precedes the tool. Consequently, the material plasticity increases because the dislocations gain energy from the laser and move rapidly. The increase in plasticity is reflected in the reduced flow stress and cutting power. In this study, a non-dimensional thermal solution for the temperature rise in the shear zone because of laser tracing was first derived. Subsequently, the thermal solution was coupled with the unequal division shear zone model to determine the cutting power during LAM. However, three improvements were made to the unequal division shear model to improve the accuracy of the results. First, the constant shear zone thickness assumption was replaced with Grzesik’s expression for shear zone thickness. Secondly, constant specific heat at the shear zone was replaced by temperature-dependent specific heat of the material. Finally, instead of maximum shear stress at the shear zone, the average shear stress was utilized for cutting force calculation. Modeling was followed by validation experiments. Cutting velocities of 15, 22.5, and 30 m/min; feed of 0.1 mm/rev; width of cut of 1.5 mm; laser power of 100 and 300 W; and laser spot size of 0.5 mm were the parameters used for the experiments. A maximum of 23% reduction in cutting power was observed in LAM compared to conventional machining at a cutting velocity of 15 m/min. Moreover, tool wear studies were done using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images.

It aims to address the issue that calibration always suspends the work of robot and is quite costly due to repeated utilization of expensive measurement instrument. For this, a pose measurement strategy with cost-effective cameras is proposed where the work trajectory of robot is considered as a strict constraint on configurations to meet the requirement of real time. However, such efficiency improvement is accompanied by the accuracy decrease because the camera brings large measurement error and the trajectory constraint results in the reduced parameter identifiability. Firstly, to pull up the camera performance to the same level of precise instrument like the laser tracker, a set of neural networks are designed to map the inaccurately measured poses by camera to the accurate poses of concerned joints. Secondly, a dimension-reducing method is proposed to truncate the constrained kinematic-error model into two, which commonly achieve high parameter identifiability. Simulation shows that the prediction accuracy of joint pose with the well-trained networks is much higher than the measurement accuracy of laser tracker. Besides, the calibration accuracy with the dimension-reduced models is validated to be higher than that with the single high-dimension model of typical calibration.

To address the limitations of traditional HDR methods, a method based on deep learning is proposed for restoring missing fringe information. The proposed method employs a simple U-Net architecture to efficiently restore saturated fringe images by leveraging high-dimensional feature representations and skip connections within the network. In addition, combining the restored fringe information provided by the method presented enables 3D measurement of the object under different measurement systems. The results of the experiments confirm that the method accurately restores the fringe information in saturated images, making the restored images suitable for high-precision 3D reconstruction. Furthermore, by integrating the restored fringe information, the proposed method enables 3D reconstruction using saturated fringe images captured under different measurement systems, which include those with varying saturation levels and those captured from different angles.
