Fraunhofer Institute Team Develops Ultra-Precise Optical Surfaces for Space

Sebastian Scheiding, from the Jena-based Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Optics and Precision Engineering IOF, said that new metal mirrors have been designed for an infrared sounder telescope (IRS-TEL). With a novel production technique, the manufacturing of complex optical surfaces can be done to obtain exceptional positional accuracy and shape. All the mirrors have to manufactured and characterized to less than 1µm accuracy.
