Silicon carbide mirror
Special Design and Technology Bureau with Pilot Production ISP NASU
Volodymyr Maslov
This solution can be applied in optical industry for telescopes mirrors manufacturing.
A mirror is manufactured from two materials with the similar coefficient of thermal expansion: Si ( lower details) and glass-ceramic ( top optical layer).
The offered technical solution has following advantages:
- high quality of optical surface;
- ecologically clear manufactures technologies;
- opportunity of manufacturing large-sized mirrors;
- simplicity of manufacturing due to opportunity of traditional optical manufacturing equipment applying;
- relatively low cost in comparison with analogues due to opportunity of mirror base manufacturing with powder-like metallurgy method.
Diameter of mirror - 150 mm and thickness - 30 mm. Quality of optical surface N=1÷3, ΔN=5, RZ=0.05÷0.025
