The processing mechanism, the prevention mechanism of powder cross contamination and the data processing method of heterogeneous materials part were discussed in detail. Two different materials,CuSn10 alloy and 4340 steel, were used to verify the technology. Experiments show that this method can effectively solve the difficult problem of heterogeneous materials placement in selective laser melting process, and realize the forming of heterogeneous materials parts:(1) The heterogeneous materials can be arranged freely in different layers or in different zones of one layer; (2) To a bulk heterogeneous materials part, the average mass percentage of Fe in the copper alloy region can be controlled below 2%, and the average mass percentage of Cu in the steel region can be controlled below 1%.

Abstract:With the rapid development of ultraviolet laser technology, the performance of ultraviolet laser films is becoming more and more demanding. In order to obtain the accurate measurement of absorption loss of ultraviolet laser thin film, it is necessary to develop ultraviolet high reflection absorption film and calibrate the ultraviolet absorption loss measuring instrument. In this paper, Ta2O5 thin films with different absorption were deposited on fused quartz substrate using ion beam sputtering technique by changing the oxygen flow. Ta2O5 thin films were selected as high refractive index materials, and the UV high reflectance absorption thin films of 355nm were designed. Two kinds of 355nm absorption films were prepared on fused quartz substrates by ion beam sputtering deposition technique. The transmissivity, reflectivity and absorptivity at the wavelength of 355nm were 0.1%, 95.0% and 4.9% for 5% UV absorption spectra, respectively. The transmissivity, reflectivity and absorptivity at the wavelength of 355nm were 0.1%, 87.4% and 12.5%, respectively. The experimental results show that the preparation of high reflectance thin films of 355nm with different absorptivity can be prepared by ion beam sputtering deposition, which is of great significance to the calibration of UV thin film weak absorption measuring instrument based on photothermal deflection measurement technology.
Abstract:We research the optical system simulation and design methods for large-area divergent solar simulators to realize the uniform illumination of large irradiation area of solar simulators. We analyze the working principle of fly-eye lens array groups and divergent projection system and the production mechanism of sidelobe effect. Then, on the basis of nesting modeling thought, we get the intensity distribution curve of the xenon lamp axis with the combination of polynomial fitting method. Furthermore, we realize the luminous intensity distribution simulation of the xenon lamp according to the luminous energy symmetry of the xenon lamp. After that, we put forward the boundary conditions and parameters for the optical system design. Finally, we design a beam shaping system, a fly-eye lens array group and a divergent projection system. The experimental results show that if the working distance is 20000mm and the irradiation surface diameter is 1500mm, the irradiation uniformity is 92.8%. It meets the uniform illumination requirement of large-area divergent solar simulators.
Abstract:To investigate the interactive effects of micro-cracks on the surfaces and subsurfaces of BK7 optical glass materials during ultrasonic vibration assisted grinding, a group of twice-indentation experiments using Vickers diamond indenters were conducted on BK7 optical glass to simulate the multi-indention effect of single abrasive grit on optical glass under ultrasonic vibration. In addition, the bonded interface technique was performed on the specimens to determine the morphologies of the indentations and micro-cracks on the surface and subsurface of the optical glass. The experimental results show that the maximum depth of subsurface cracks produced by the second indentation is affected by the previous lateral cracks and is reduced by 30 μm under the same loading conditions. Furthermore, the optical glass materials will be broken after lateral crack are closed on the surface or inside of the optical glass. Based on indentation fracture mechanics, a model of elastic/plastic stress fields in the BK7 optical glass under indention loading was established to analyze the mechanism of micro-cracks propagation and the shield effect. The analysis of the interaction of micro-cracks as influenced by ultrasonic vibration reveals that the depth of subsurface cracks decreases and the material removal efficiency is improved with ultrasonic vibration assistance.

Abstract:To meet the high-precision and lightweight requirements of a space optical mirror pointing mechanism, a type of space parallel mechanism based on a spherical 5R mechanism was proposed. Load mounting with traditional 5R parallel mechanisms was difficult. To solve this problem, asymmetrical branches and specific linkages were designed. Workspace, dexterity and carrying capacity were used as optimal indices, and structural parameter optimization design was conducted based on performance atlases. Model analysis of the optimized mechanism was conducted by using the finite element method. Optimization results show that the asymmetrical branched-chain mechanism has a better index of dexterity. The barycenter of the pointing mirror load was designed at the center of the spherical mechanism, which makes the mechanism more compact and increases its natural frequency. The proposed parallel pointing mechanism was shown to have good integrated performance. This study provides a basis for high-precision space optical pointing applications.
