6. Jason Koglin, APS/HEAD, April 2002 Multilayer Coated Glass Optics Thermally Formed Glass  Reasonable cost  Thin and light weight  Low surface roughness  Mass producible  8 ovens at Columbia  1.5 technicians  >1 optics layer/day W/Si Multilayer Coatings  Enhanced reflectivity with broad energy acceptance  High throughput at DSRI coating facility  ~2 optics layers/day

7. Jason Koglin, APS/HEAD, April 2002 Telescope Assembly Method  Each spacer layer (upper & lower) is individually machined to the precise radius and angle:  Assembly errors do not stack up  < 8” assembly error contribution  Multilayer optic shells are constrained to spacers with epoxy:  Only near net shaped shells are necessary to obtain 1’ HPD performance  Fast and robust assembly process:  Requires 1 tech for 1 layer/day
