Abstract
We report here on the construction and use of a pair of matched glass colli mating slits which are suitable for molecular beam work. These glass slits transmit nearly all (> 85%) of an incident laser beam. Additionally, these slits are matched to better than 5-10 mum at a gap size of 200 mum.
