Fabrication and Characterizations of an Aerogel All-silica Mirror
Two different techniques to fabricate all-silica mirrors using dense silica and silica aerogel films were investigated. An all-silica mirror with near 100% reflectivity was built with 23 layers of PECVD dense silica and silica aerogel.
