Shape Correction of Thin Mirrors
Future large space observatories will require large apertures to provide better resolution and greater light gathering power; thin mirror technologies provide one possible route for addressing this need. This paper presents a study of a 10 m diameter sparse aperture based on a collection of thin, active mirror segments with identical initial shapes. A preliminary design for a 1 m diameter mirro...
متن کاملUltra-Thin Highly Deformable Composite Mirrors
Optical quality mirrors are heavy, expensive and difficult to manufacture. This paper presents a novel mirror concept based on an active laminate consisting of an ultra-thin carbon-fiber shell bonded to a piezo-ceramic active layer coated with patterned electrodes. Mirrors based on this concept are less than 1 mm thick and hence are very lightweight and flexible. They also have a large dynamic ...
متن کاملRadial cracks in perforated thin sheets.
When a rigid cone is slowly pushed through a thin elastic sheet, the material breaks, exhibiting a network of cracks expanding in the radial direction. Experiments conducted with aluminum sheets show that the number of cracks is selected at the beginning of the perforation process and then remains stable. A simple model predicts the number of cracks as the result of a competition between the el...
متن کاملMultilayer Thin Films Dielectric Double Chirped Mirrors Design
The double chirped mirror DCM appeared to meet the need to compensate for the gain crystal dispersion of solid state lasers in a broad wavelength range. Compared to earlier dispersion compensation techniques, they enabled remarkable improvements in the field of generating ultra short pulses. When ultra broad band gain media are used inside laser cavities, cavity dispersion plays an important ro...
متن کاملDetecting long-term drift in reagent lots.
BACKGROUND Between-reagent lot verification is a routine laboratory exercise in which a set of samples is tested in parallel with an existing reagent lot and a candidate reagent lot (before the candidate lot is committed to test patient samples). The exercise aims to verify and maintain consistency in the analytical performance of a test. We examined the limitations of a routine between-reagent...
