Modulation Collimator Fine Grids for HESP

The proposed High Engergy-Solar Physics (HESP) million will require fine, precise, high aspect ratio modulation collimators for the High Energy Imagin Spectrometer (HEISPEC). The fabrication approach described here rests on the proven precision of semiconductor lithography - the ability to replicate extremely accurate patterns onto different planar substrateds.
