Kodak AMSD mirror processing was successfully completed, and the mirror was cryo tested at NASA. This paper reviews the entire AMSD program at Eastman Kodak Company from mirror blank production to mirror processing and metrology. To achieve the most information possible with respect to the flight configuration planned for JWST, the original Kodak AMSD test plan was modified. This change in plan is discussed and how it impacts the future path for AMSD. The AMSD Phase III program is also discussed and the status of that program is provided. In addition, this paper discusses performance of the mirror at cryo temperatures.
With the ever increasing requirement for improved mass soldering defect levels, more and more emphasis is being placed on process control, one of the major variables being solderability, the testing of which was until recently very subjective.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
