Scope of the document SPIRou is a near-infrared spectropolarimeter / high-precision velocimeter being designed as a new instrument for Canada France Hawaii Telescope. It has two main science goals, the detection and characterization of habitable exo-earths orbiting low-mass stars on the one hand, and the measurement of magnetic fields in young protostars as a proxy to investigate the impact of magnetic fields on star / planet formation on the other hand. This document contains the specifications for the Atmospheric Dispersion Corrector (ADC) prisms Applicable documents N Document Title Document Number Issue / Date 1.3.

Acronyms AD ADC CFHT DP n Qty RD SoW SPE SPE n SPIROU Applicable Document Atmospheric Dispersion Corrector Canada France Hawaii Telescope Deliverable Product number n Quantity Reference Document Statement of Work Specification Specification number n Spectropolarimètre Infrarouge 1.5. Instrumental polarization A particular concern of this type of instrument is the minimization of the instrumental polarization. For the following items, the material selection and their assembly should result in a minimized birefringence level taking into account the effects of gluing, holding stress with thermal changes: Atmospheric dispersion Corrector (ADC)
6 DATE : 19/12/2017 PAGE : 6/ DELIVERABLES PRODUCTS IDENTIFICATION 2.1. Contractor Deliverable Products The ADC assembly for SPIROU /SPIP is composed of two identical null-deviation prisms (ADC1+ADC2). Each ADC1 /ADC2 is composed of two wedged elements of different materials glued together. These two null-deviation prisms are counter-rotated along the optical axis to adjust the total dispersion magnitude and direction to correct the atmospheric dispersion. Table 1: Contractor Deliverable Products N Designation Qty DP 1 SPIROU ADC Assembly1 1 DP 2 SPIP ADC Assembly 1 OPTION DP 3 SPIP ADC Assembly 1 The ADC assemblies for SPIROU and SPIP have different angles for the prisms but use the same glasses and the same antireflection coating Figure 1: SPIROU ADC1 and ADC2 optical layout

The antireflection coating should withstand the MIL standards for coatings. The coating should not be sensitive to moisture (from 0 to 100% relative humidity level) 4. OPTICAL GLUE REQUIREMENTS SPE 6 The glue used to bind optical surfaces together should have minimum absorption over the wavelength range µm. SPE 7 The glue should be selected to minimize Fresnel reflection over the wavelength range µm.
