Improving Wavefront in Astronomy Gratings with MRF

Volume phase holographic gratings (VPHGs) manufactured with dichromated gelatin (DCG) have become a staple of astronomical spectrograph design due to their high first order diffraction efficiency, low stray light, and high index modulation, which enables wide spectral bandwidths and angular tuning. At SPIE Astronomical Telescopes + Instrumentation 2024, we gave […]
