Tungsten Trioxide-based Variable Reflectivity Radiation Coatings for Optical Propulsion Applications
abstract: This thesis explores the potential application of the phase change material tungsten trioxide (WO3) in optical force modulation for spacecraft and satellites. It starts with a literature review of past space optical force applications as well as potential phase change materials for optical...
