Surface control apparatus and method of optical transmission with large aperture based on self-adaptive force-moment technology.

Surface control of large-aperture transmission optics in both on-line working, and off-line testing, states is perceived as one of the most important requirements, and the largest engineering challenge, in high-power solid-state laser facilities. Consequently, a surface control apparatus and method was proposed based on the self-flexible force-moment technology and principle of load linearity, respectively. A series of analyses were conducted using the proposed apparatus and method both mechanically and numerically.
