Designing miniature x-ray optics for the SmallSat lunar science mission concept CubeX [PDF]
Planetary remote-sensing instruments are often required to cover a relatively large field of view, ideally with a uniform angular resolution over the field, due to relatively large apparent sizes of planetary targets at close proximities.

Measurement and correction of two-sided freeform optical elements with combined tactile-optical metrology equipment [PDF]
Freeform optical elements are state of the art for several years to fabricate very high performance optical systems with the necessity of, e.g., strong folding in mirror system or correction of typical asymmetric aberrations in mirror systems as well as ...

Conformal antireflection coatings for optical dome covers by atomic layer deposition
B92B96Complex 3D-shaped optics are difficult to coat with conventional technologies. In this research, large top-open optical glass cubes with a 100 mm side length were functionalized to simulate large dome-shaped optics.

Tapered multicore fibers for energy-scalable fiber laser systems [PDF]
With active multicore fibers (MCFs), many parallel amplifying waveguides can be densely assembled into a common glass cladding. A tapered fiber geometry applied to MCFs enhances the power and energy scalability of these systems by increasing the doped ...
