Machining of optical surfaces in brittle materials using an ultra-precision machine tool

Investigations of machining optical surfaces into brittle materials using an ultra precision machine tool are presented. The newly developed ultra precision NION machine is evaluated to gain a good appreciation of its operating performance. The machining accuracy capability of this machine is establ...
