Résumé des résultats (Abstract) (Anglais)

A novel polishing approach based on thermodynamic simulations of laser-glass interaction is developed to optimise the polishing procedure for arbitrary surfaces of micro-optical elements and arrays. The model will be validated with tests conducted directly in an industrial environment.
