Abstract

Integral field spectroscopy (IFS) is capable of simultaneously collecting two-dimensional high-resolution spatial image information and spectral information in a target field of view (FOV). The image slicer is the key element in IFS for segmenting the target FOV. Current micro-image slicer fabrication methods such as molecular assembling need strictly accurate control during sticking, which is time-consuming and expensive. In this study, we improved a direct-adhesive method for thin glass slicer manufacture and alignment. Thin glass is fabricated via single polishing and direct stitching to form a micro-image slicer. Based on charge coupled device (CCD) camera tests on parallel light, the manufacture accuracy for a six-channel image slicer reaches that of the molecular assembling scheme. This method can be applied to the fabrication of image slicers with different apertures.
