Polishing Protocol For Zirconium Diboride Based Ceramics To Be Implemented Into Optical Systems
- 详细技术说明
- Title: Polishing Protocol for Zirconium Diboride Based Ceramics to be Implemented into Optical Systems Invention: This is a method for polishing a particularly hard ceramic that typically requires following a precise protocol. This technology provides an athermal, lightweight and strong ceramic to be used as a more durable option for optical systems. Background: A key component of adaptive optical systems is the deformable mirror, which, through the use of actuators, corrects aberrations present in the wavefront being examined. The search for the perfect material for the mirror has led to materials that present difficulties in polishing. Applications: Deformable mirrors Biomedical materialsHigh temperature semiconductor devicesSynchrotron optical elementsLightweight, high-strength structuresAdaptive optics Hypersonic rocket nose cones Advantages: Allows optical systems to be athermal, lightweight, and strongPolishes material to high standards without stressing the material Licensing Manager:Amy PhillipsAmyP@tla.arizona.eduRefer to case number UA18-057
