Abstract

The invention discloses an ion beam polar axis processing method capable of correcting and removing local error of an optical element, which comprises the following steps: firstly acquiring a removal function through experiment, then carrying out rotary symmetric treatment on the removal function, next using a wave surface interferometer to acquire a surface shape error function of the element, establishing a shaped model and calculating density distribution of residence time, solving the residence time in an Archimedes path, then adjusting screw pitch according to circumstances, and generating a numerical control code according to sector Archimedes spiral discrete information and synthesized motion speed of each discrete sector area to carry out first numerical control shape-correcting processing, and finally repeating the processing steps more than once according to the circumstances till meeting the accuracy requirement of a work piece. The processing method reduces requirement of the mirror surface size on processing system size, saves processing cost, overcomes the defect that the prior polar axis processing mode can not carry out error correction on non-rotary symmetry error of the mirror surface, and ensures processing efficiency.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of ion beam processing of optical elements, in particular to an ion beam polar axis processing method of optical elements. Background technique

[0002] The optical mirror ion beam processing method uses the ion sputtering effect to remove materials from the atomic scale, uses a near-Gaussian beam to enter the workpiece to form a removal function with a near-Gaussian distribution, and then deterministically corrects the mirror error based on the principle of optical mirror shaping (CCOS). Features such as high precision, high determinism, non-contact, no wear and no edge effect. However, the principle of material removal in ion beam processing determines that the entire processing process must be completed in a vacuum environment, which determines that the construction of the ion beam processing system is complex and the cost of use and maintenance is high.
