Title

Development Of A Subsurface Damage Measurement Technique For Infrared Materials

Abstract

The development of a material-specific technique to measure the subsurface damage (SSD) imparted during machining will aid in determining machine process parameters necessary to yield high-accuracy, low-damage parts for infrared optics. The material-specific procedures used to expose and measure SSD in crystalline and glassy IR materials are described. SSD results are compared for plano, conventionally fabricated and Opticam-cut spherical surfaces. An attempt is made to relate machine parameters to observed damage. It is the understanding of machine parameters and their effect on figure, roughness and damage which will allow development of a rule-based approach to the grinding of these materials.
