Observatory MKID CCAT Bend Blocks: The
dispersed light from the faceted grating is coupled to a linear array
of 160 bolometers via 8 waveguide bend blocks. Each block mounts
20 detectors above and below the plane of the parallel plate waveguide
in an alternating fashion, maximizing spacing between adjacent
bolometers. The waveguides have a constant rectangular cross
section and use curved waveguide feeds. The blocks are fabricated
by bolting 21 slices together.
