Rigid aspheric smoothing tool for mid-spatial frequency errors on aspheric or freeform optical surfaces
Abstract In order to remove mid-spatial frequency errors on aspheric and freeform surfaces, we have developed an aspheric smoothing tool which, unusually, is rigid. This has been proved feasible in the special case where the abrasive grit size exceeds the aspheric misfit, providing a cushion. Firstl...
