Abstract

Aluminum thin films were deposited on a 3D prototype employing the direct current magnetron sputtering technique to fabricate a lightweight 3D first surface mirror. Before the aluminizing, the surface of the prototypes was evaluated with interferometry and atomic force microscope (AFM). The thin films were characterized using profilometry, UV-Vis spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction, AFM, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and scanning electron microscopy. High adherence and homogeneous deposition of the aluminum’s thin films were achieved. In addition, the purity of the material was confirmed by XPS analysis.
