1. INTRODUCTION

This document constitutes the final report for the Vertically Fused Face- sheet Performance program, sponsored by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency and conducted by Itek Optical Systems under contract to Rome Air Development Center. This report describes the work to meet the objective of this program, and includes the characterization of the facesheet sample, analytical evaluation, irradiation testing, analysis-to-test data correlation> conclusions and recommendations.

1.1 Program Objective and Scope

The objective of the program was to demonstrate that facesheets for very large mirrors can be made by fusing glass from different boules along a vertical seam without detrimental effects on performance in a thermally stressing envir- onment. The scope of the' effort includes analytical and experimental evalua- tions using Ultra Low Expansion Fused Silica (ULE)™.

1.2 Background

Corning Glass Works is the only supplier of high quality, low expansion glass for large optical mirrors in the U.S. Currently, Corning is not able to make large face plates from a single boule of glass if those plates are to be larger than 3.3m in diameter. Corning has suggested developing a larger than standard boule (greater than 3m) and flowing it out to the required diameter. This process however, is time-consuming, expensive and wasteful of glass. Corning has another process for fusing glass from different boules along vertical seams to make large pieces of glass, but this was always considered to increase performance risk because of boule-to-boule variations in the properties of ULE. Recently Corning has increased the quality control for ULE production, and as a result there is much less boule-to-boule difference in the glass. This means it may now be feasible to vertically fuse ULE and still meet the performance specifications. Some of the issues and advantages to these alternate methods of producing large mirror facesheets is shown in Figure 1-1. This study will determine if vertically fused ULE from different boules can meet the performance requirements for high flux systems like the LODE Advanced Mirror Program - Segmented (LAMP-S).

1.3 Program

To achieve the objective of the Vertically Fused Facesheet Statement of Work, a 9-month study was conducted by Itek Optical Systems. This study was structured around three principle tasks. One task involved the thermo-structural analysis of a one meter diameter test sample of a LODE-type facesheet subjected to simulated LODE-type thermal stressing condition. A second task included the design, fabrication and material characterization of the one meter facesheet sample. The mirror is made from three pie-shaped segments fused together from two different boules of ULE™ glass. The third task required the finished mirror to be tested optically under thermal flux loadings and the results cor- related with analytical predictions. The work breakdown structure for the study is shown in Figure 1-2.

2. SUMMARY

This study evaluates the performance of a fused segmented facesheet mirror used in actively controlled mirror systems. The one meter diameter by 20mm thick facesheet design is such that the mirror is made up of three pie-shaped segments fused together from two different boules of ultra-low expansion fused silica (ULET ). The mirror segments were purposely mis- matched for expansion properties, two segments having negative coefficients of thermal expansion (C-T-E) and the third having positive values. The facesheet C-T-E properties were characterized in detail both radially and axially. The total range of C-T-E variation was from -0.018 x 10"6/°C to +0.012/°C. Also, internal stresses along the seal lines were measured and stresses up to 129 psi were indicated. During optical surfacing operations of generating, grinding, edging, and polishing, the vertical seal planes offered no problems or impediments to manufacturing operations. An interfero- gram of the final figure of the facesheet showed no discontinuity or effects at the seal lines.

In order to evaluate the mirror optical performance during incident flux loading, two thermal tests were run. The first utilized a low flux level with the mirror oriented as shown in Figure 2.1, while the second utilized a higher flux level with the mirror rotated 180°. Both flux asymmetries and mirror segment CTE biases were investigated.

An understanding of the performance characteristics of fused mirror tech- nology was gained, which can be important to large aperture systems. Thermal math model analysis results were correlated with measured test temperatures. Analytical temperature data for rapid heat-up transients were incorporated into a detailed NASTRAN structural model to predict various surface deflections. By comparing these analytical predictions with measured test deflections using interferometry, an understanding of vertical seal lines and variations of coefficient of thermal expansion to performance was gained.

To accurately predict the distortion of the facesheet under thermal load, it was important to

1) understand the gravity test sag of the thin facesheet so as not to mask out the thermal errors;

2) understand the mirror mount induced loadings during irradiation which might significantly distort the surface relative to the thermal error;

and 3) incorporate not only the Corning room temperature measured CTE

variations but also account for thermal strain variations over the entire region of the thermal environment.

The detailed results of how these were evaluated and incorporated into our math model are discussed in the body of this report. In light of those analyses, it was concluded that the results of the second thermal test, in which a higher flux load was imposed upon our facesheet, could be more readily correlated. This is so in that the total thermal strain is nearly three times higher than in the first, lower flux test, thereby providing a significantly higher signal relative to mount and noise error.

With reference to these tests, it is pertinent to note the amounts of measured aberrations relative to those predicted by the structural math model (aberrations predictions are obtained by post processing of the NASTRAN dis- placements thru the Itek Optics Performance Prediction Program). Such values are summarized in Table 2.1 for the case of 100 sees irradiation. There is an excellent analytical correlation in both magnitude and sign for the measured focus (power) term for the latter test, both yielding on the order of three surface waves convex (mirror flattening) power error. There is also a good correlation of predicted comatic angle of error between tests one and two; since the mirror is rotated 180° from test to test, comatic angle moves with the mirror by this amount, as predicted. There appears, however, to be a poor correlation between the amount of measured cylinder and coma magnitudes relative to those predicted. Mount sensitivity analyses, however, as induced by the mirror sling/snubber support scheme, indicate that one wave of cylinder error is readily borne out by the mirror surface under mount loads as low as one in-lbs. of moment or one pound of radial force (as are comatic errors to a lesser degree). As later presented, purposely induced test mount errors bear out this analytical conclusion. In this regard, the summary shown in Table 2.2 is presented in which the mirror test residual after cylinder fit is compared.

to the predicted residual from thermal effects alone. An excellent correlation is evidenced, both residuals of test and analysis on the order of one quarter wave rms realized for the Test 2 configuration. Higher order residuals after fourth order spherical aberration fit are also of nearly equal magnitude.

Finally, as illustrated in the following sections, both analytical optical contour plots and test interferometry reductions bear out no ill effects of the fusion seal planes; i.e., the mirror behaves as if a continuous boule with CTE variations throughout.

We conclude, therefore, that we have achieved a good thermal induced error correlation between analysis and test, in terms of predicted power error match, comatic angular variations, residual fits, and absence of dele- terious fusion line effects. We also conclude that the mirror is extremely sensitive to low spatial frequency mount induced error, so that a more kine- matic mounting scheme would have been most desirable to negate such effects. Our mount arrangement tended to mask out self induced facesheet thermal errors, particularly at the lower flux level. Finally, we conclude that the thermal error prediction correlation for our one meter test piece is readily extrapolated to fused mirrors of larger aperture, since the analytical techniques utilized to predict errors of the test mirror are identically those utilized in performance prediction of such larger diameter facesheets.

3. DESCRIPTION OF WORK ACCOMPLISHED

3.1 Facesheet Blank Procurement

,TM Corning Glass Works supplied the ULE~" facesheet blank for this evaluation

study. The program Statement of Work required the one meter diameter LODE-type facesheet contain at least one vertical seal plane. Also, the glass in each segment shall have variations in thermal coefficient-of-expansion consistent with those taken from different boules fo glass. Figure 3.1-1 shows the vertical fused facesheet configuration used for this study. The facesheet blank consists of three equal pie-shaped segments taken from two different boules of ULE™ glass. The ULE™ glass was supplied from government inventory and was of "strut-quality" grade.

The fabrication cycle for the facesheet blank can be summarized by a series of steps listed below. This section characterizes the facesheet as required by the program Statement of Work, especially step (g) where the face- sheet coefficient-of-thermal expansion properties are defined.

(a) Selected ULE segments from two boules of glass as shown in Figure 3.1-1, reviewed coefficient-of-thermal-expansion data and authorized Corning Glass Works to begin fabrication on 24 June 1981.

Page 14: VERTICALLY FUSED FACESHEET PERFORMANCE3.5-1 Vertically Fused Facesheet Test Equipment List 3-34 3.5-2 Thermocouple Calibration for Vertically Fused Face Test 3-35 3.6-1 Analytical

The coefficient-of-thermal-expansion for each boule was measured at 2-inch increments radially at three radial locations 120 degrees apart, and through the thickness in 1/8-inch increments. This CTE distribution is correlatable to the final blank and takes into account the annealing cycle by using witness samples.

(b) Cut-out segments. Pie-shaped segments were cut to shape using a diamond blade saw. The blank thickness of 1.5 inches was obtained by wire sawing. At this time, witness samples of glass were taken for characterizing the coefficient of thermal expansion after final anneal for the segments.

(c) Fused segments together in a fusing furnace at temperatures of approx- imately 1600°C according to a controlled heat-up and cool-down cycle.

(d) Drilled out bubble defect. The glass grade used for this study exhibited some bubbles. During the fusing process, a grouping of three bubbles elongated and extended through most of the blank thickness. It was decided to core drill out this grouping with a 3/4 inch diameter through hole. This hole, near the edge of the facesheet and 9 inches away from the nearest seal line, may be seen in some of the photographs in this report.

(e) Slumped the fused facesheet to a spherical radius in a furnace at approximately 1600°C over a shorter period than the fusing process. The convex surface radius of curvature used was 175 inches to match existing tooling at Itek for final surfacing.

(f) Annealed the facesheet in a furnace in what Corning Glass Works terms as a "standard" fine anneal. This process uniformly changes the CTE properties of the facesheet and that change is monitored by the wit- ness samples noted in step (b).

(g) KEY POINT - Characterized the facesheet coefficient-of-thermal- expansion for its final annealed state. This was done to the detail described in step (a). A summary plot of the CTE distribution is shown in Figure 3.1-2. The average area weighted CTE for each seg-

ment is:

Segment A =-10.2 x 109oC-1 (PPB/°C) at room temperature

Segment B = -10.2 PPB/°C

Segment C = +8.7 PPB/°C

Segments A and B exhibit two characteristic peaks of CTE variations in a 20 inch (1/2 meter) radius having total amplitudes of about 20 PPB/°C. Segment C shows about one peak of CTE variation with a total variation of about 6 PPB/°C. The accuracy of CTE measurements has been stated by Corning Glass Works to be about 1 to 2 PPB/°C. There was no effort in this program to better match these segments for more uniform CTE distributions. In fact, some differences were intended in order to provide some measurable thermo-deflections.

In manufacturing large facesheets, it is quite possible to provide segmented mirrors having better CTE matching than this facesheet to provide better optical performance under thermal stressing conditions.

(h) Corning delivered the facesheet blank to Itek, October 6, 1981 on schedule, 15 weeks after start of fabrication and that includes a 4

week plant shut down.

3.2 Mirror Facesheet Fabrication

Mirror fabrication involves a number of optical surfacing steps to make the facesheet blank into a mirror of sufficient quality for thermal loading evaluation. These steps which were done at Itek will be outlined below.

(a) Inspection and Clean-up - The facesheet passed incoming inspection October 8, 1981. The blank was given to optics to carefully clean- off a thin crystalline layer of glass on the center area of the con-

cave side.

(b) Grind Convex Surface - The convex surface was ground to establish a "seat", using a combination grinding/support tool with a radius of

approximately 177 inches.

(c) Generate Concave Surface - The mirror blank was mounted to a support tool, using a vacuum chucking technique. A concave radius of 175.086 inches was generated into the blank with a diamond impregnated gen- erating wheel as far as the support tool. The inner area was sub- sequently generated to blend into a sphere. No voids were generated

in the surface.

(d) Grind Concave Surface - Grinding was done to remove the generator marks with #30 microgrit and a grinding tool with a radius of approx-

imately 176 inches.

(e) Generate and Grind Convex Surface - (reference c. and d. above) The convex surface was generated to a center thickness of 0.837 inches.

(f) Fine Grind both surfaces.

(g) Internal Stress Characterization - At this point, the facesheet was measured at selected points along the seal lines for internal stresses. This was done by measuring the birefringence at these points using a Split Field Friedel Polarimeter, and relating birefringence readings to stress levels by using the birefringence constant for ULE™, 3.92my/cm(kg/cm2)-1. Also, the facesheet was photographed under polarized light to show the constant strain lines (isoclines) exhibited by the facesheet. A stress map and the strain photograph for the facesheet is shown in Figure 3.2-1. There are significant internal stresses along the seal lines, especially along the seal line between segments B and C where tensile stresses of 129 psi were measured. The birefringence corresponding to 129 psi is 3.56mu/cm^ which is considered quite high for optical mirrors. From the strain

(h) Final Polish - The back surface was polished for stress relief. The front surface was polished to A/2 peak-peak surface at 632nm. Astig- matic deviation of up to 2X was allowed. The final fabrication figure is shown in Figure 3.2-2.

3.3 Analytical Evaluation

Analytical theory is used to predict very small, detailed deflection responses of the facesheet subjected to the thermal flux profiles of the irradiation testing of this program. The objective of the analysis is to correlate analytical predictions with test results. The analytical approach used is consistent with techniques regularly used at Itek, and employees a transient thermal program called TAS and a nationally used structural program called NASTRAN. The thermal and structural models used for this study will be described and the analytical results will be discussed below.

3.3.1 Thermal Analysis

The thermal model is used to provide detailed temperature distributions in the facesheet over the irradiation periods of 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100 seconds for NASTRAN structural analysis. The detail of the model includes 135 nodes for the vertical fused facesheet and nodes for the chamber background and heat mask. The facesheet was divided axially into five thin discs of twenty five nodes each. Five nodes were included through the thickness to detail the area in the facesheet where the 3/4" diameter hole was located. Also, a one square inch area of aluminum tape (5 axial nodes) was included to simulate the front area where a thermocouple was attached. The vertical fused facesheet model is shown in Figure 3.3-1.

There were 108 radiation connections including radiation heat transfer off the front and back surfaces of the mirror to the vacuum chamber and off the mirror edge nodes to the heat mask. The chamber temperature remained con- stant at 70°F.

The nodes of the mirror were connected to each other by conduction radi- ally, axially and circumferentially for a total of 358 connections. The material and surface properties assumed for the thermal model are shown in Table 3.3-1.

Flux Input

The flux input into the model accounted for the measured absorptance, the flux profile with time based on test flux measurement,, the flux distribution with position on the mirror based on a post test flux survey.

Table 3.3-2 shows the flux levels measured at a reference position during each test that were input into the model.

Post test flux data is presented in Table 3.3-3. From this data the effects of its position on the flux for a nodal area can be determied. The flux for 30 positions was measured in a post test survey, one of which was also measured during test. The ratio of each position's flux to this reference position's flux (the position factor), was determined for each position. A position factor for each node was determined by relating nodal locations to test position locations. The effect of reflection from the mask was considered in the above flux survey. Position factors from this data were determined simi- larly and this factor was included in the nodal flux load.

The average coating absorptance of 0.69 was used in the model.

The flux was applied to the front face of the mirror and into the hole. The flux load at any time for a given node in the model was the product of the reference position's flux value at that time, the nodal position factors, the nodal area, and the average measured absorptance.

Model Correlation with Other Analysis

The model was tested against another method of analysis, a Schneider plot1. In this analysis assumptions of constant uniform flux, insulated back face and edge, and no radiation from mirror front surface to chamber were made.

The Schneider plot presented the Fourier number, a dimensionless parameter directly proportional to time, versus a dimensionless parameter T = (v—) (t-to), for various depths into the mirror. By reading values of T off the curve for intervals during the test, the temperature would be determined

t = T(^) + to.

Results of this exercise are presented for the front nodes and are compared to uniform flux model determinations in Table 3.3-4.

It can be seen that the model compares within 2 F with the Schneider analysis. Reasons for the discrepancy may be due in part to the assumptions which may occur in plot reading.

A similar analysis was done for the aluminum taped section and the same agreement was seen. It was therefore assumed that the model analysis is an accurate description of the test.

Model Sensitivity to Test Conditions

The model's sensitivity to the test condition of a "soft" vacuum was examined. The test was conducted at 6 Torr for which there is a very small amount of air, about 1/125 of an atmosphere. For the temperature conditions, a very small convection coefficient of about 0.005BTU/HR-FT2-°F was calculated.

To determine the effect of the test vacuum, this convection coefficient was used and a new constant temperature node representing the air in the chamber was added. The front and back surfaces of the mirror were connected to the air by convection heat transfer. It was seen that there is no signifi- cant difference between the cases with and without convection, therefore it was assumed that the convection during the test was negligible.

Test Data Results

The model was run for the test condition inputs as described above. A sample temperature distribution is shown in Figure 3.3-2. , The temperature of both tests for each mirror node at 20 second intervals was provided for struc- tural analysis.

Figures 3.3-4 to 3.3-6 represent axial, radial, and circumferential tem- perature results of Test #2 respectively. It can be seen that the largest temperature gradients occur axially, and the smallest occur radially.

The nodes plotted in Figures 3.3-7 are an axial representation of the section of the mirror under the aluminum tape for Test 2. The cooldown of these nodes is seen to be extremely slow shortly after the heating ends, unlike the other sections. This is because of the lower temperature levels reached by this area as compared with its surrounding area. The conduction between the aluminum tape section and the surrounding mirror section which is at a higher temperature halts further cooling of the aluminum tape section.

Test Data Comparison

Representative test data is plotted with corresponding analysis in Figures 3.3-8 to 3.3-10.

From the test #2 plots, it can be seen that the back surface analyses and test data temperature histories have the same shape, and model and test temper- ature rises are seen to agree within 20%.

The single front surface thermocouple reading differs with analysis by as much as 6°F in Test #2. This may be due to the uncertainty of the absorp- tance properties of the aluminum tape.

The test data of the cooling of the front surface temperature sensor is unlike that predicted in the model, test data indicates that the front surface thermocouple cools similarly to the untaped mirror, not very slowly as the aluminum tape section as the model did. This may be because the actual ther- mocouple was in a different thermal environment than the model's simplifica- tion. It was at the surface, not inside the top layer of the glass, therefore it did not interact as strongly with the neighboring mirror as was depicted in the model. And the high conductivity of the aluminum tape was not represented in the model, which could account for some discrepancy.

All previous conclusions indicate that the thermal model corresponds well with the actual test, as it does with most of the test data within experi- mental uncertainty and analytical assumption, therefore the model predictions are believed to be an accurate thermal description of the test.

3.3.2 Structural Analysis

3.3.2.1 Math Model Description

Since the mirror facesheet exhibits quite variable and quite low coef- ficients of thermal expansion, it was necessary to map such values and varia- tions one for one on our structural model to obtain an accurate solution under the thermal flux loading. This is done on the detailed NASTRAN model shown xn Figure 3.3-11. The grid network consists of 979 node points, connected by 1056 finite elements. Element thermal strain data is mapped on each of these elements at five points through the thickness in order to properly account for the effective integrated strain gradient which, under flux loading, is non- linear. Thus, the model contains over 5000 temperature inputs for each dura- tion time considered, at 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100 seconds into the exposure.

In order to obtain the analytical prediction of wavefront aberrations, the manufacturer supplied coefficients of thermal expansion for each segment comprising the finished facesheet were mapped onto the structural model. This was accomplished via a specially written computer preprocessor which accounts for the profiles of the selective boules in which the segments were taken. The program then was utilized to map the thermal profile from the TAS thermal model and compute the effective thermal strain product (aAT) at each element at five points through its thickness. The output from this preprocessor was formulated to directly input to the NASTRAN model as a set of temperature cards. Finally, the deformed shapes obtained from the model were analyzed through the Itek optics post processor routine to determine the components of the wavefront error (focus, astigmatism, coma, etc.).

3.3.2.2 Mirror Mount Analysis

Since the coefficient of thermal expansion of ULE glass is so low, it was important to understand the amount of anticipated gravitational sag of the mirror in order to be able to interferometrically remove it. Since the

one meter mirror facesheet thickness is only twenty millimeters, representa- tive of larger diameter irradiated designs, a high D/t ratio of 50:1 results. Such a design is most sensitive to gravity loading. If tested with surface looking up on a three point kinematic mount scheme, a surface error of nearly 100 waves peak would result, predominantly tricorn, making measurement of the anticipated thermal errors Impossible. If the mirror were tested on edge, a significant error of up to 30 waves peak could still result. If this error could be reduced somewhat and shown to be of low order spatial components, however, optical removal of such error could be made. Physical removal by polishing in the error was deemed costly and difficult.

A study was thus undertaken to choose the best mount scheme to help negate the gravity error. Utilizing the NASTRAN finite element model of the facesheet, several cases were investigated. These included three point mount- ing at varying radii, single and double V-block mounts,and sling mounting at various angles of wrap. A summary of some of these cases is shown in Figure 3.3-12. As noted, while large errors result, the sling mount errors are pre- dominantly cylindrical. For the 120° wrap in particular, over 90% residual is removed after cylindrical fit, therefore this scheme was chosen for the thermal tests. Gravitational residuals remaining could then be subtracted from the thermally induced errors. Analytical contour of the sling gravity effect is shown in Figure 3.3-13 before cylinder removal.

3.3.3 Analytical Results - Performance Prediction

As described earlier, results from the thermal math model were imposed upon the detailed structural math model for the two analyzed and tested flux level conditions. Because no closed form solution utilizing the variations of CTE and thermal non-uniformities could be obtained, the NASTRAN model was thoroughly scrutinized to ascertain its validity. The results of a uniform strain gradient were compared to the theoretical solution.

In fact, it is easily shown that a kinematically mounted circular flat plate subjected to a linear thermal gradient through its thickness results in a spherical deformation well approximated by the relation:

2 aATD (1)

y = ___

where a is the material coefficient of thermal expansion, AT the difference in temperature between the top and bottom surfaces of the plate, D the plate diameter and t the plate thickness.

For circular kinematic mirrors which have a finite radius of curvature, however, the mirror shell under the described gradient no longer remains in the stress free state afforded by the flat condition, so that equation (1) no longer applies.

To illustrate what happens to the residual error before and after focus correction, the detailed NASTRAN model of the 40 inch diameter mirror was made, with the mirror thickness varied accordingly. The model was initially run as a flat plate, and the results found to agree with the theroetical solu- tion to within one-half of one percent. A radius of curvature of 175 inches was then included to represent our curved optic.

Utilizing a constant unit gradient through the mirror thickness, the resulting displacements from the math model were then input to the Itek OPTICS package to determine residual error both before and after focus. The results are shown in Figure 3.3-14. As evidenced by the curves, the departure from the flat plate error is most pronounced as the diameter to thickness ratio increases. For a D/t of 50:1, as is our design, the error is about 2.5 times less than the flat plate without correction. After focus, however, about 15 percent residual still remains, whereas the flat plate error is entirely focusable. For a D/t of 10:1, the uncorrected error is very close to that of the flat plate, while the residual error remaining after focus is less than

1 percent. '■-•,.

We conclude that the shell effect reduces the residual error before a focus fit, under a thermal axial gradient. After focus,' the residual error may be significant. This phenomenon is validated by shell theory.

Satisfied with the model performance, the test levels were superimposed on the model in conjunction with the measured CTE data across the facesheet as illustrated in Figure 3.1-2. The Corning measured values, however, are valid only near room temperature. As temperature increases, the thermal strain behavior of ULE glass is non-linear; that is, the coefficient of thermal expansion is not a constant. This is evident by the thermal expansion strain curves for ULE glass shown in Figure 3.3-15. Thus, the facesheet room tem- perature data were imposed upon these curves to obtain the true variation of strain over the entire region of the flux level loading. For ease in pro- gramming to the preprocessor which would generate the temperature cards nec- essary for the NASTRAN program, a table look up interpolation chart was pre- pared to generate an effective coefficient of thermal expansion at any temper- ature input as predicted by the thermal analysis. The effective coefficient of expansion is defined as the total strain to the temperature level of inter- est divided by the temperature change. These values are shown in the chart of Table 3.3-5. ItL is noted that at the higher flux temperature levels, effective CTE is increased markedly from the room temperature level. Detailed results of the low and high flux cases are summarized in the appendix. Shown are the residual errors for no fit and various fits, both rms and peak to peak, at selected intervals of irradiation duration. Also shown are the predicted amounts of power, cylinder, coma, and other aberrations. Shown in the plots of Figures 3.3-16 and 3.3-17 are the NASTRAN contours of distortion at 20 and 100 seconds for both tests.

The primary objective of the test was to interferometrically measure and record the optical surface figure changes of the one-meter facesheet during 100 second periods of high thermal irradiation. Temperature data was also recorded to assist in .correlating analytical temperature predictions. Two mirror tests were conducted for two flux load levels of 100 seconds each for two mirror orientations. Test data appeared to be of good quality for evaluations, includ- ing 32,000 frames of interferograms.

3.4.2 Test Method

Irradiation - High intensity, thermal flux loading for the mirror was provided by tungsten-quartz infrared lamps used in conjunction with a high absorptance coating on the mirror. A black chrome coating was utilized to provide the high absorptance for the lamp output and yet provide sufficient reflectance for good interferometric measurements.

In order to characterize the coating absorptance (alpha), it is necessary to measure alpha over the spectral output of the lamps. The alpha was deter- mined from the relation:

alpha = 1.0 - reflectance - transmission

where reflectance and transmission were measured over the wavelength range of 0.4 to 5.0 microns from a witness sample taken when the facesheet was coated. The spectral radiance of the lamps for this test and the coating absorptance as a function of wavelength are shown in Figure 3.4-4. The integrated average alpha over the range of output of the lamps was found to be 0.690, and takes into account a small amount (about 4%) of measured transmission through the black chrome. The spectral radiance was calculated from 0.4 to 4.3 microns and was adjusted for coating absorption and transmission, and quartz trans- mission. The irradiance peaks at about 2.3 microns and drops to zero at 4.3 microns because of low transmission of quartz glass beyond that point.

Optics - The mirror's figure during irradiation tests was measured in a center of curvature set-up using a Twyman-Green interferometer, at 0.633y wavelength. Data was recorded by imaging the mirror aperture simultaneously on a 35mm camera and a 16mm cine camera during the 100 second irradiation period. Exposures were taken on the 35mm camera before the lamps were turned on, at 10 second intervals during irradiation and after the lamps were turned off. The 16mm cine camera was operated at 175 frames per second for test #1 and 160 frames per second for test #2.

In its vertical sling mount, the fused facesheet exhibits a significant gravity sag, a total of about 5 waves surface RMS (at .633um). Also, the final figure of the facesheet has about 2 waves peak surface error of astigmatism. In order to reduce these baseline errors to a manageable level, an astigmatism corrector was used. This corrector consists of a tilted pair of plane-parallel glass plates positioned in front of the interferometer. The plates were adjusted to induce a constant amount of astigmatism in the optical path to compensate for mirror and mount induced astigmatism. Baseline interferograms showed about 0.5 waves RMS, surface errors after adjustments to the corrector plates.

Data was recorded on two cameras to allow figure reduction at discrete intervals (using the 35mm film), and to allow a particular fringe to be fol- lowed throughout the test (using the cine camera). Following a particular fringe enables the axial displacement of the mirror surface to be measured. Knowing this axial movement and knowing the total fringe focus change in the interferograms, the actual radius change in the test mirror can be calculated.

3.5 Test Equipment and Instrumentation

The equipment and instrumentation used for this test is listed in Table 3.5-1. All instruments were calibrated for the test period according to standard Itek policy.

Temperature data was recorded using 28 gage copper-constantan, Type T, thermocouples. Thermocouple calibration data is shown in Table 3.5-2. All thermocouples were measured with the Fluke recorder used for the test as a system calibration and compared with a laboratory mercury thermometer,No.F634G. Thermocouple locations are shown in Figure 3.5-1.

Dynamic Resolution Test (DRT) Chamber - The DRT is a large, cylindrical, walk-in vacuum chamber which is equipped with a full-diameter access door, electrical power, instrumentation, and liquid pass-through port capability. A 19-inch diameter by 1.25-inch thick optical window is mounted to the rear wall for interferometric evaluations. A substantial interferometer mounting block is located exterior to the chamber window position. The chamber and mounting block are attached to a common vibration-isolated platform. Each irradiation response test was conducted at a pressure level of 6 Torr.

Irradiation Calibration Frame - The calibration frame was assembled to allow accurate horizontal and vertical coordinate positioning of a heat flux transducer. This provides a means to monitor the average flux density at each reference point for calibrating the irradiation uniformity of the simulator lamp assemblies. Each coordinate position was spaced at various intervals from the operational axis of the simulator assembly. A Medtherm, Type 64-05-20Tflux transducer, with a range of 0 to 56.8 kw/m2 and a signal output of 0 to lOmv, was employed for the uniformity adjustments. A post-test flux survey is shown in Table 3.3-3.

3.6 Correlation of Test and Analytical Results

The analytical results of the thermally induced error discussed earlier are now compared to the measured data. These comparisons are shown graphically for both tests in this section. In Figure 3.6-1, the measured results of the aberration terms are shown as a function of exposure time for the low flux of test 1. Given are the amount of measured power, cylinder, and coma in surface waves, peak, visible. Shown also are the angles of aberration, defined as the first high, or positive, peak along the edge, looking at the concave surface. The power term is negative, that is, such that the mirror bends convex, or into a more shallow sphere. Figure 3.6-2 shows the same aberrations as measured during the high flux of test #2. Table 3.6-1 is a summary listing of these aberrations compared side by side to the analytically predicted values at 100 seconds for both tests. As evidenced, there is an excellent correlation in power term in both size and magnitude, and a good correlation in prediction of comatic angle (angle variations of 180 in coma mean no correlation, i.e., opposite sign, while 0° difference is perfect correlation within anticipated test errors). There is, however, a rather poor correlation in measured versus predicted cylinder as well as angle of cylinder.

To understand the correlations, the chart of Table 3.6-2 was prepared to show side by side the residuals remaining after selected fits for all dura-

tions for both tests. As evidenced, there appears to be an unfavorable correla- tion of residual magnitude in test 1, and a more favorable one in test 2. For test 2, the residual errors are shown as a function of time graphically with the analytical results after focus and residual fits and plotted in Figure 3.6-3. Seen here is a good residual correlation for higher order fits, but

a lesser one after focus fit.

While the results showed excellent correlations in power, sign, comatic angle, and higher residual error, a further effort was undertaken to understand the lack of correlation in residual amounts after the low order fits. As noted in Table 3.6-2, the residuals of test 2 after cylinder fit show a marked cor- relation to the predicted values. It was deemed that perhaps some mount induced loading was generating the higher than predicted cylinder error, and, to a lesser degree, the coma error.

It is recalled that the mount scheme, a 120 sling supporting the mirror on edge with three "snubber" points to react the moment imbalance, was chosen and exhibited large cylindrical gravity errors which could be removed initially in the interferometric set-up. Studies showed the mirror to be extremely sen- sitive to cylinder error. Cases were exercised on the NASTRAN math model to note sensitivities to cylinder error under mount loadings of one pound or one inch pound induced at the snubber and strap support locations. These cases showed a high sensitivity to mount induced cylinder error. Optical check-out tests, discussed in the appendix, were then conducted to induce, purposely, mount type errors as afforded by sling heating and sling offsets. As in the analytical evaluation, significant cylinder induced errors up to 3 waves sur-

face were identified.

We conclude, therefore, that the test cylinder amounts measured were most likely introduced by the sensitive mount scheme. With this considered, the chart of Figure 3.6-4 was prepared, which compares test #2 power aberration, cylinder, and residual fits to those predicted. A very good correlation is realized as evidenced, when the mount cylinder error is fit.

The results of test #1 show less favorable correlations. In this case, the lower flux level, and hence lower thermal response in conjunction with the lower effective coefficient of thermal expansion, results in a signal less than one third that of the second test. Such a low signal is masked out by mount and test errors, making the correlation difficult.

3.6 Results Scaled to Larger Mirrors

The facesheet material and thickness for this test was purposely chosen to simulate that of large aperture irradiated systems proposed for future design studies. For such larger systems, wavefront residuals must be required held to the order of 0.02ym rms surface error, demanding the use of an active or multipoint support design scheme.

The purpose of this test was to show that no fusion line effects are pre- sent and that analytical correlation to test results of a fused segment design is therefore feasible. To achieve this, the segments were purposely chosen mismatched in CTE and the mount scheme not multipoint, in order to achieve a high enough signal relative to the figured piece. If resulting errors were

correlated, extrapolation to larger, active design is readily made, since the identical assumptions, analytical techniques, and finite element modeling are utilized in their performance predictions. The correlation has been discussed in Section 3.6. In both analysis and test, the fusion lines show no ill effect, in that the mirror behaves as a continuous piece, in spite of CTE step changes between segments and significant locked in residual strain. Our analyses of larger designs have utilized boule to boule variations in excess of those of the test piece, and show low residual error achieved with proper active support mount spacing. We conclude that our test results are directly relatable to large aperture, vertically fused designs on a multipoint mount arrangement.

4. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Based on the above discussions, it is concluded that:

1) Fusion line effects are non-consequential to the analyses and fabri- cation.

2) Power prediction is well correlated in both magnitude and sign. 3) Comatic aberration angle is well correlated as it moved as predicted

when the mirror was rotated 180° from test to test. 4) Residual error after cylinder and higher order fits is correlated

within reasonable limits. 5) Thermal strain variation with temperature is a must for considera-

tion. 6) Predicted results are readily extrapolated to larger aperture designs. 7) Testing of thin facesheets requires careful mount design and detailed

sensitive studies to minimize mount effects.

APPHA/DIX A

Measurement of Coating Uniformity

Measurements of coating reflectivity and transmission were made across the face of the mirror to determine if an absorbtion variation existed during

the test.

The measurements were made by observing a stable white light source with a spectro-spotmeter, reflected off and transmitted through the glass. This shows relative reflectance and transmission in the visible region. During the coating of the mirror with successive layers of chrome, measurements of reflect- ance and transmission were made in the visible and infrared. These in-process tests showed that the IR absorbtance was tied to the absorbtance value in the visible, demonstrating that an IR absorbtance change is directly tied to an observed change in the visible.

The mirror was measured at six radial points; center and 4, 8, 12, 16, and 18 inches from the center. This measurement was repeated at each quadrant. These provided data both radially and transversely across the mirror.

12 .004% .003% .004%

16 .003% .003% .003%

Conclusion

The transmission measurements are low enough to be considered uniformly zero. Also, measured radiation leakage through the coating by pinholes was estimated (by spotmeter) to be of the same order as the coating transmission. Even doubling the transmission measurement would produce only .01% transmission- trivial compared to the reflectance.

The reflectance demonstrates a radial variation of about + 1% in absorb- tance. Thermal effects should be small compared to other influences.

Measurement of Mount Induced Errors

During optical alignment of the mirror for the irradiation test the mirror initially exhibited a large amount of astigmatism, not expected from analysis. This error was tracked down to excess force in the paired axial restraints (snubbers) which trapped the glass front and rear at three points. This problem was fixed, and the mirror reached a stable figure which could be reduced for a baseline for the irradiation test.

It was postulated, however, that other figure changes could have been induced by a mechanical change in the mount caused by thermal loads during the test. To quantify the mount effects on optical figure, the mirror was replaced in its mount and various changes and loads were applied while the figure was observed.

The following load simulations were applied and found to have ng effect:

1) Tilting of the snubber bolts in their holes, imitating a lateral growth of the frame, and movement of the glass.

2) Moving the snubber bolts axially (screwing them in) to imitate axial growth of the snubbers.

3) Lengthening of the mirror strap, to simulate an elongation of the strap by heat.

Two mount changes did have noticeable effects, they are:

1) Rolling the mirror sideways to take a "set" away from the lowest point on the strap. The same aberrations were observed, but with opposite sign, when the movements were to left and right.

2) Heating the front edge of the strap to cause a temperature difference from the front to the rear of the strap. This simulates the heating from leak- age of radiation around the edge of the mirror, where it abutts the insula- tion. The measured heat differential in the strap for this test was 5°C. The distortion causes a slight cone shape in the strap.

The aberrations induced by these two loads is shown in Figure 3.

Conclusion

A mount load which causes a movement of the mirror and strap as a whole has no effect on the figure. However, any movement of the mirror with respect to the strap will induce errors. Differential heating of the strap is very likely, and this variation will be used in the re-analysis. A sideways motion would be caused by an error in mounting combined with "settling" during the thermal cycle. While this is a possibility, it is not provable or predictable, and will not be considered here.
