Comprehensive analysis of gratings for ultraviolet space instrumentation
Abstract
Comprehensive measurements in the vacuum UV range of 1200-3000 A of efficiency, polarization, and scattering of classically ruled and photoresist gratings are reported. The results show that the art of ruling gratings for vacuum UV use has reached a high level of sophistication and that careful analysis of grating properties can lead to useful improvement of the ruling art.
