ABSTRACT We investigated the fabrication of an immersion grating by diamond machining grooves on the hypotenuse of a right angle germanium prism. A numerical modeling code was used to optimize the blaze angle and to model grating efficiency over the wavelength range of 7.5 to 13.5 tim. The sensitivity in polarization is predicted to be small. We alsoquantified the effects of non-zero radius of curvature of the diamond tool. An atomic force microscope measured an rmsroughness of 1 . 1 nm on the grating facets. The diffracted wavefront error in reflection at 633 nm was 0.01 waves. Therefore optical aberration and scatter over the operating wavelengths will be negligible.Keywords: Immersion grating, germanium, diamond machining 1. INTRODUCTION Spectrometers are valuable tools for determining the composition and properties of distant, inaccessible objects both inastronomy and in environmental remote sensing. Diffraction gratings, which spectrally disperse electromagnetic wavesusing a periodic structure, are a key component in most modern spectrometers. The classic reflection grating consists of
