Recently developed ceramic materials and fabrication techniques integrated by Langley Research Center workers to produce superior optomechanical structures for spacecraft and aircraft instrumentation. Basic features of these novel supports, such as dimensional stability, low cost, and ease of fabrication, also make them ideal for many commerical optical systems as well. Ceramic supports for optical components and benches offer important advantages over usual metal parts. Ceramic materials expand and contract only slightly with changes in temperature. Moreover, they are relatively inexpensive and lightweight.
