Ultrafast Laser Micromachining for Correction of Thin Optics for Next Generation X-ray Space Telescopes
The central theme of this thesis is the development of implementing ultrafast laser micromachining technology to the correction of thin-shell lightweight high-resolution mirrors for future high performance X-ray space telescopes. The existing fabrication methods cannot achieve the required accuracy...
