Refractive Lens

A liquid tunable diffractive/refractive hybrid lens which combines the use of high precision diamond turning and soft lithography is developed in this work. This diffractive/refractive hybrid lens comprises a Fresnel lens and a tunable refractive lens automatically aligned during the fabrication process. Multiple PDMS hybrid lens devices can be fabricated from the diamond-turned master mould and AFM results show that the surface quality of the PDMS lenses meets the requirements for optical purposes. The hybrid lens is tested with a green laser (λ = 532nm) and experimental results demonstrate a tunability of more than 20mm.

To furthermore optimize the machining parameters and improve the surface quality of the workpieces manufactured by single point incremental forming method, the formation mechanism of the sacle veins on the metal incremental froming workpieces was studied through experiment method. The influence principle of the spindle speed, the feed speed and the material of tip of tools on the length of scale veins was obtained through analyzing the experimental results and building the mathematical model among the length of scale veins were feed speed and spindle speed through measuring the roughness of surfaces and observing the appearance of the forming workpieces. The experimental results showed that, the spindle speed, the feed speed and the material of tool tips have a significant effect on the scale veins formation on the surface of forming workpieces. Therefore, an appropriate group of spindle speed and feed speed can reduce the effect of scale veins on the roughness of single point incremental forming workpieces and furthermore improve the surface quality of forming workpieces.

To realize the high-efficiency grinding of the aspheric surfaces on monocrystal silicon, a novel on-machine truing method for the resin-bonded arc-shaped diamond wheels was proposed utilizing rotary green silicon carbon rod, and then the high-efficiency grinding of the aspheric surface was performed. First, the principle of mutual-wear for truing arc-shaped diamond wheel was introduced, and the truing performance was studied. The experimental results showed that the top morphology of the trued arc-shaped wheel was precise and smooth, and the run error on the top of the trued arc-shaped wheel was reduced from 41 to 10 µm after truing. Furthermore, high-efficiency grinding experiments revealed that the surface quality of the aspheric surface increased with the increase in the average material removal rates.

This paper presents a study of cutting strategies on the surface generation in single-point diamond turning of micro V-groove patterns on precision roller drums. An aluminium precision roller drum with a diameter 250mm and 100 long was diamond turned with a V-groove pattern. A series of cutting experiments were designed to study the effect of the variation of various cutting parameters and cutting tool paths on the surface quality in diamond turning of the precision roller drum. The parameters under investigation included the depth of cut, number of steps and the depth for each cut when diamond turning V-grooves on the cylindrical surface of a workpiece. The measurement result indicates that the surface quality of V-grooves machined on the precision roller drums is affected by cutting strategies. The optimal cutting strategy for machining a V-groove pattern on a precision drum with 5µm depth was obtained.

It has been one of the difficulties that high-precision small hole on stainless steel is machined. The supersonic vibration boring acoustic system is installed in the lathe. The supersonic wave energy applies to tool to create pulse power on the cutting process. The separation vibration cutting is achieved by the pulse force. The comparative tests on boring surface quality are carried. The quality of surface machined by this method is compared to that by grinding. This cutting is the green cutting. The boring process system is stability. The cutting force is greatly reduced. The cutting temperature is at room temperature. The tool life is greatly increased. Surface quality and shape precision is greatly improved. The regulations of the ultrasonic vibration boring dry cutting of stainless steel are also summarized. The test results show that the ultrasonic vibration boring by double cutter is of very superior cutting mechanism and is a high-precision thin - long deep - hole machining of stainless steel materials, efficient cutting methods.

The surface contact impression(SCI) is the neglected forming defect and seriously affects surface quality and mechanical property of stamping parts. The technology parameters and affective degree which alleviate or eliminate SCI are researched , four factors including die radius(DR) , die clearance(DC), punch radius(PR) and friction condition(FC) , which each factor chooses three levels are designed and constitute a L9（34）orthogonal table. The experimental results indicate that the significances order of technology parameters affecting SCI is DR> PR > DC >FC. The analyzed result shows that the superior parameter affecting SCI is DR ,the inferior is FC, adapted DC greatly removes SCI. the research puts forward a reference for improving surface quality of stamping parts.

A novel fabrication process is proposed for manufacturing thin-film metal Fresnel lenses for X-ray applications. This process combines diamond turning technology and photolithographic processes. To prevent thin-film lens substrates from deflection during diamond turning, films were prepared on single crystalline silicon wafers by electrolytic plating. After the Fresnel lens structure is generated on the metal thin films by diamond turning, the silicon substrate was then removed selectively by reactive ion etching. Experimental results demonstrated that the proposed hybrid fabrication process achieves submicron form accuracy and nanometer surface roughness.
