Kirkpatrick-Baez (KB) and Lobster Eye (LE) Optics for Astronomical and Laboratory Applications

The unique linear Angel prototype produced by replication: 47 square channels, 120 mm long, and mm. This picture illustrates the power of electroformed replication even for very long square cells which otherwise could not be polished inside. In this technology, the square mandrels were highly polished and then replicated, so the polished surface is now inside. This demonstrates that also other techniques as MCP can be considered for LE Angel arrangements.
