Keywords:MEMS, X-ray optics

We have been developing an ultra lightweight X-ray optics based on MEMS technologies.Micropores 20 µm wide are fabricated with dry etching on Si wafer and used the sidewalls as X-ray mirrors. We tried to develop Lobster eye optics newly. The optics focuses X-ray on cross shape but can achieve wide field of view simply in comparison with Wolter Ⅰ type X-ray telescope we have been developing.We will report on fabrication methods and developmental status for MEMS Lobster eye optics.
