Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An optical assembly has at least one mirror with a mirror body. The latter is carried by a support body, which has a first support body portion and a second support body portion. An at least thermally separating region is arranged between the two support body portions. At least one surface portion of at least one of the support body portions or of a body thermally coupled thereto is modified in such a way that a thermal emission coefficient ε m of the modified surface portion differs from a thermal emission coefficient ε u of the unmodified surface portion by at least 10%. The result is an optical assembly, in which an improved thermal stability is achieved by the predetermining of the thermal emission coefficients.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. An optical assembly, comprising: a mirror having a mirror body; a support body carrying the mirror body, the support body having a first body portion, a second support body portion, and an at least partially thermally separating region between the first and second support body portions, wherein: a member of the optical assembly has a modified surface portion and an unmodified surface portion; the member is selected from the group consisting of the fi…
