Abstract
The development of the optical components for METIS, which is the mid-infrared ELT imager and spectrograph, is a challenging task. On one hand, there are tight requirements regarding wavefront error, driven mostly by high contrast imaging modes. On the other hand, limited space envelopes are available. In this paper, we present the development of the largest flat aluminium mirror of derotator mechanism which is located within the Common Fore Optics (CFO) of METIS. The 240mm-diameter mirror is made of gold coated Rapidly Solidified Aluminium (RSA) 6061-T6 with the compact flexure-based mount directly embedded in the mirror body. This novel design includes mounting pads that are located at the front, inside the optical surface. This approach improves the universality of the proposed solution while introducing challenges from the manufacturing point of view, i.e. surface holes that make polishing more difficult. The mount design is a combination of leaf springs and rotational hinges and is optimised to reduce the aberrations due to gravity and assembly loads. Thanks to the in-house manufacturing process relying on 5-axes milling capabilities, it is possible to create such a complex integrated mirror mount with minimal impact of the holes on the quality of the optical surface. Numerical simulations of this mirror performed for various load cases contributing to surface aberrations show extremely low surface form error (< 15 nm RMS) of the metallic mirror.

- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
