Wet-Etch Figuring Optical Surfacing by Controlled Application of Etchant Solution Using the marangoni Effect.

Wet-Etch Figuring [electronic resource] : Optical Surfacing by Controlled Application of Etchant Solution Using the marangoni Effect.

Wet-etch figuring (WEF), a computer-controlled method for generating arbitrarily shaped optical surfaces using wet chemical etching, has been developed. This method uses applicator geometry and surface tension gradients (the Marangoni Effect) to define and confine the footprint of a wetted etchant z...
