Scientific paper

Micro-Opto-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MOEMS) are under study in order to be integrated in next-generation astronomical instruments for ground-based and space telescopes. Their main advantages are their compactness, scalability, specific task customization using elementary building blocks, and remote control. At LAM, we are engaged in the design, realization and characterization of programmable slit masks for multi-object spectroscopy and micro-deformable mirrors for wavefront correction. This technology will provide the key to small, low-cost, light, and scientifically efficient instruments, and allow impressive breakthroughs in tomorrow's observational astronomy.
