The real question. How can we leverage this technology to improve a telescope?
before you suggest the tech is different or incompatible, consider first - what if?

[@Leadvest]

Telescope technology already uses doped crystalline materials and deposited coatings. Can you be more specific? Like characterizing intergalactic field polarization or something? It's not a naive field, you can share ideas and it's likely already been done, and with less advanced tools than this.
