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

Figure 45

The micro LE Schmidt objectives, 3 × 3  mm. This figure illustrates that the MFO technology can be applied also for very small structures and very small Lobster Eye modules. In the devices illustrated, gold-coated float glass foils 30 micron thick are assembled with spacing of 70 microns. Small plate distances (together with long focal distance) represent condition for good angular resolution.
