Abstract

Zerodur material is considered as the ideal material in the high performance optic systems because of its excellent thermal stability characteristics. This paper deals with the impacting factors on the zerodur material surface roughness during atmospheric pressure plasma jet(APPJ) processing. At first, based on multiphase and multi-component in zerodur material, the effect on the zerodur surface chemical components and surface roughness is studied when the element contained Si is etched during the chemical machining process. The change of surface microcosmic topography is observed, it is proved that the technology of atmospheric pressure plasma jet can modify the surface roughness of zerodur material. Moreover, in consideration of the re-deposition phenomenon in the machining process, the composition of the re-deposition are studied and the genesis of the re-deposition were analysed. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) with Energy Dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDX) were utilized to obtain the elemental composition of the sample powder residuum on zerodur surface. The relationship between substrate roughness and the process parameters is established based on the experimental results. Experimental results indicate that it is beneficial to add certain amount O₂ to modify the surface roughness of zerodur material. This finding provides an important basis for the improvement of surface roughness in APPJ of zerodur material.
