 | The Officer Personnel Management System (OPMS) has been with us for about ten years. From the beginning, OPMS has been more a patchwork quilt than a single piece of cloth. It was designed only to fix those aspects of the then current system (circa 1970) that were perceived to be broken. With a decade of living with the system it seems appropriate to pause and examine its worth. Specifically, does ... |

|
 | A number of new improvements in the infrared optical materials, CVD zinc sulfide (ZnS) and zinc selenide (ZnSe), are discussed. These developments include the manufacture of a new water-clear ZnS with improved visible and infrared transmission, the production of a sandwich material which combines the hardness/toughness of ZnS with the infrared optical properties of ZnSe, the development of a manufacturing technique to bond wire grids to ZnS and ZnSe surfaces ... |

 | This program established a fully automated process for the chemical vapor deposition of zinc selenide blanks. Prior to the program Raytheon Company had an established production process for the fabrication of this material. Further, Raytheon Company had, on an experimental basis, determined that the process could be fully automated by replacing the internally housed zinc source system with an externally housed system that fed zinc into the furnace at a ... |

 | The purpose of this manufacturing and methods technology program is to establish an automated production process for the fabrication of high optical quality zinc selenide. The program is of seventeen months duration and is sponsored by the United States Army Electronics Research and Development Command. It addresses itself to the further automation of an exiting production process for the chemical vapor deposition of zinc selenide. Raytheon Company has successfully developed ... |

 | Two full-scale zinc selenide deposits were successfully conducted conducted using the evaporator system. The optical and mechanical quality of the material produced appears to be the equivalent of that made in the reservoir system. (Author) |
