METHOD OF MAKING LARGE AREA CONFORMABLE SHAPE STRUCTURES FOR DETECTOR/SENSOR APPLICATIONS USING GLASS DRAWING TECHNIQUE AND POSTPROCESSING

摘要

A method of making a large area conformable shape structure comprises drawing a plurality of tubes to form a plurality of drawn tubes, and cutting the plurality of drawn tubes into cut drawn tubes of a predetermined shape. The cut drawn tubes have a first end and a second end along the longitudinal direction of the cut drawn tubes. The method further comprises conforming the first end of the cut drawn tubes into a predetermined curve to form the large area conformable shape structure, wherein the cut drawn tubes contain a material.
