High groove density reflection gratings placed at grazing incidence in the extreme off-plane mount offer improved performance over conventional in-plane mounts in the x-ray. We present test results from the grating evaluation facility at the University of Colorado for gratings optimized for use in the off-plane configuration. The gratings tested are produce via holographic lithography. Gratings tested have radial groove patterns and include both blazed and sinusoidal groove profiles. We present efficiency and sub-aperture resolution results.
