Abstract:Optics with free form surface can be achieve special imaging effects and reduce component amounts in optical systems. However, it is difficulty to fabricate high accuracy, damage-free optical surface with free form surfaces by conventional method. Atmospheric plasma machining is a non-contact chemical processing method which can fabricate optics without damaged layer. Numerical controlled atmospheric pressure plasma machining (NC-APPM) method is proposed to machine optical free form surfaces. A new atmospheric… Show more
