In the last 25 years, electroforming process has been extensively optimized to produce grazing incidence optics for the X-ray space telescopes, enabling the renown observatories Beppo-SAX for the Italian Space Agency, SWIFT for NASA, XMM Newton for ESA, eROSITA for MPE. These optics are made of thin Nickel mirrors that are grown by electroforming process in an electrolytic bath on a Gold coated mandrel.Electroforming has also been adopted for production of large reflector panels for sub-millimeter radio telescope applications. Between 2006 and 2016, 3000 mirror panels for 25 antennas of the ALMA radio-telescope array of ESO and 1600 mirror panels for the 50-m diameter Large Millimeter Telescope (LMT) “Alfonso Serrano” of INAOE were designed, produced and tested.

AbstractWe present measurements of the evolution with film thickness of the 3d electronic states at the Fermi energy of ultrathin Ni films. The morphology and thickness of the films is determined from x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. x-ray photoelectron diffraction and x-ray magnetic linear dichroism using synchrotron radiation. Photoelectron angular distributions were measured using an ellipsoidal mirror analyzer. Even at submonolayer Ni coverages, the 3d electronic states exhibit bulk-like properties. This is attributed to the short screening length of electrons in metals, the localization of the 3d electrons, the similarity of the Ni and Cu ion cores, and finally the interaction with the underlying fcc periodic potential.
