Paper Abstract
The NIRCam instrument on the James Webb Space Telescope will have a Lyot coronagraph for high contrast imaging of
extrasolar planets and circumstellar disks at λ=2 - 5 μm. Half-tone patterns are used to create graded-transmission image
plane masks. These are generated using electron beam lithography and reactive ion etching of a metal layer on an antireflection
coated sapphire substrate. We report here on the manufacture and evaluation of the flight occulters.
