Abstract

This paper describes an ultra precision polishing method of aspherical mirrors, and the fundamental research on polishing characteristics. The aspherical mirrors with a diameter of about 30mm made by fused silica glass and CVD-SiC were ELID (electrolytic in-process dressing)-ground to high form accuracy with #4000 cast iron bonded diamond wheel, and then polished with a small polishing tool. As the result, final surface roughness of 1.4nmRa and form accuracy of 1.2 μm was obtained.
