  • Abstract
    Micromirror arrays have been fabricated dedicated to astronomical instrumentation. The 100times200 mum2 sized micromirrors show an excellent optical surface quality and can be electrostatically tilted by 20deg. A system of multiple landing beams have been implemented, which forces uniform tilt angle
