Abstract
Hughes Danbury Optical SYstem successfully manufactured three sets of complex sample cells for the Space Shuttle PHaSE experiment. Each sample cell assembly consists of an F/.55 spherical lens and an F/.45 parabolic skirt. Each is manufactured to exacting fabrication, metrology, coating and assembly tolerances.
