Optical freeform generation by laser machining and plasma-assisted polishing

Tailored optical freeform lenses are required for different applications. Sub-aperture deterministic machining techniques such as plasma jet machining have shown great potential to generate freeform surfaces. However, depending on the required local slopes of the surface shape geometrical limitation...
