This animation shows a micro-optical element (binary lens) being assembled into an MOT slot.
We have performed preliminary micro-assembly experiments with the help of Sandia National Laboratories. The image below shows two diffractive lens elements mounted in a bulk-micromachined silicon substrate. The zones of the relatively high F-number lenslet are clearly visible in the element on the left. The lens elements are shown from the rear in this image.
A Topography of a fabricated on axis binary lens centered in the optical element mount of the Micro Optical Table.
Designed height of the focal point above the optical table = 1mm
