Fabrication of zero-gravity surface for large-aperture aspherical mirror by using rotationally method
To acquire the zero-gravity surface figure error of an aspherical mirror in a ground fabricating environment
a high-precision rotation method based on gravity compensation technology was established. First
the basic principle of the
N
equal interval rotation method is introduced. Second
combined with an aspheric ultra low expansion (ULE) mirror with a diameter of
Ф
1 290 mm processing
the rotation angle and off-center control methods are given
respectively
and the angle error and off-center error are better than 0.1° and 0.1 mm
respectively. Third
in the low-precision stage
the rotation result is processed by three-position rotations and the surface accuracy of the mirror quickly converges to 0.029
λ
-RMS. At the same time
the symmetry error on the mirror surface is cumulatively amplified due to the application of the rotation method. After removal
the surface accuracy further converges to 0.023
λ
-root mean square (RMS). Finally
the six-position rotations are used to guide the optical manufacturing. The surface figure error of the mirror in the six directions is 0.012
λ
-RMS and 0.010
λ
-RMS by removing the gravity deformation error
which allows it to be considered as a zero-gravity mirror in the space environment after the satellite is in orbit. The method described in the studyis not only applicable to the fabrication of one meter-level mirrors
but also to larger space aspheric mirrors with the goals of a zero-gravity surface figure error.
