Microshutters arrays for the JWST near-infrared spectrometer
Samuel H. Moseley,Richard G. Arendt,Rene A. Boucarut,Murzy D. Jhabvala,Todd King,Gunther Kletetschka,Gunther Kletetschka,Alexander Kutyrev,Mary Li,S. E. Meyer,D. Rapchun,Robert F. Silverberg +11 more
TL;DR: The Microshutter Array as discussed by the authors is a programmable field selector for the Near Infrared Spectrograph (NIRSpec) for the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) which is a multi-object spectrograph operating in the 0.6-5.0 μm spectral range.
