ABSTRACT:
A segmented focusing mirror having a plurality of segments with each segment having a different focal length is made by constructing a plurality of mirrors with each mirror having a different focal length. The plurality of mirrors are sliced or are cut up into a plurality of segments. One or more segments of one mirror are combined with one or more segments of another mirror to form a master mirror. The master mirror has a common focal point with the segments having different focal lengths. A segmented focusing mirror is replicated from this master mirror by forming a mold of this master mirror and replicating therefrom.
