Abstract
Silicon carbide has a combination of properties that place it high on the list of candidates for sychrotron radiation grazing incidence reflectors. The chemical vapor deposited form has a very fine structure that permits the polisher to obtain very smooth surfaces. 5 cm diameter flats have been polished to about 1 Å rms in the 5 to 400 cycles per milimeter spatial frequency range.
