Paper Abstract
The Observatorio Astrofisico de Javalambre in Spain will conduct an all-sky astronomical survey using multi-bands, where optical filters are needed. These filters are narrow bandpass steep edge filters (FWHM = 14.5 nm) in a spectrum between 390 to 920 nm with 10.0 nm steps. In order to fulfill the demanding requirements for final scientific image quality and transmitted wavefront error a new white-light Shack Hartmann sensor and difficult refractive index measurements of the sub-assembly were needed. In addition due to the spectral requirements the design and manufacturing of the filters were pushed at its technological limit.
