Abstract
Canon has the world's most advanced cutting machine and has provided the world's first CdZnTe1 and InP2 immersion gratings to the market. Cutting gratings on brittle materials is very delicate, and nm-accurate processing can be achieved by cutting alone. Using this technology, we have fabricated the machined image slicer integral field unit (MISI) for the Diffraction-Limited near-IR Spectropolarimeter (DL-NIRSP) 3 of the Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope (DKIST) 4 . The MISI-36 we produced is consists of 112 36μm×1.3mm micro slicer mirrors, a parabolic collimator, a monolithic flat mirror array consists of 112-fold mirrors, and a monolithic spherical mirror array consists of 112 spherical mirrors. This paper presents the latest high precision machined and fabricated ultra-compact IFU/ MISI-36.
