Abstract

Starting from the application requirements of space remote sensing cameras, focusing on surface stability, researches on Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) mirror material selection, structural optimization design, substrate preparation and dimensional stability control, optic manufacture and coating had been carried out, a sample mirror with a diameter of 200 mm was successfully prepared, and passed the test of the simulated space environment, which solved the problem of the change of the surface figure of the CFRP mirror, this laid the foundation for the development of a larger diameter CFRP mirror and its early successful application in space cameras.
