Modification Technology of 3D-Printed Silicon Carbide Space Mirrors

To address the key challenges of 3D-printed silicon carbide (SiC) mirrors—namely, high porosity and numerous interlayer defects arising from the layer-by-layer stacking process, resulting in a surface roughness of approximately 40 nm RMS after direct polishing that fails to meet optical requirements—this study employs...
