1. A manufacturing process for forming an energy reflector having a monolithic structure without encapsulation of a forming surface wherein said forming said structure includes the following steps:
blending together carbon nanotubes, carbon nanofiber, and a resin hardener under suitable conditions to form a cured conductive slurry;
applying said curing conductive slurry to a shaped forming surface wherein said shaped forming surface is of a shape corresponding to a desired reflecting surface shape;
curing said conductive slurry enabling it to sufficiently harden; and
separating said reflecting surface from said shaped forming surface without encapsulating said shaped forming surface and wherein said shaped forming surface is substantially rigid and fixed into place as a mirror image of said desired formed reflecting surface shape, and wherein said conductive slurry hardens to form said monolithic structure of conductive slurry mirroring said shaped forming surface for operation as a said energy reflector.
