Typtical Case: Spectral Resolution,

element;
● Single band spectral coverage: 0.3 micron of H band;
● 2K  2K detector array; 18 micron pitch;
● 10-m, f/15 telescope.

Designing a spectrograph camera of R  5000 and an
integral field of 6  12 for an integral-field
spectrograph of a 10-m telescope covering a single
broadband can be a good PhD project for a
challenging/ambitious graduate student.
Image slicer-based Integral-Field Spectrograph
Image slicer-based Integral-Field Spectrograph
Image Slicer:
 The input image is formed at a segmented in thin horizontal sections
which are then sent in slightly different directions;
 Usually three mirror arrays to form a pseudo long slit: slicer array (tilted
spherical mirrors forming pupil images of each slicer) + pupil array (or
capture mirrors, recombines the separate beams into the desired linear
image) + field array (forms a common virtual pupil, its aperture serves as
the entrance slit to the spectrograph).
 Contiguous sampling of the sky while retaining spatial information.
 Challenging optical design, fabrication, and implementation.
