    "abstract": "A slicer mirror is a complex surface composed by many tilted and decentered\nmirrors sub-surfaces. The major difficulty to model such a complex surface is\nthe large number of parameters used to define it. The Zemax\u0027s\nmulti-configuration mode is usually used to specify each parameters (tilts,\ncurvatures, decenters) for each mirror sub-surface which are then considered\nindependently. Otherwise making use of the User-Defined Surface (UDS-DLL) Zemax\ncapability, we are able to consider the set of sub-surfaces as a whole surface.\nIn this paper, we present such a UDS-DLL tool comparing its performance with\nthose of the classical multi-configuration mode. In particular, we explore the\nuse of UDS-DLL to investigate the cross-talk due to the diffraction on the\nslicer array mirrors which has been a burden task when using\nmulti-configuration mode.",
