About Shanghai Optics Inc.- Type: Mirrors
- Applications: Astronomy, Biomedical/Medical, Communications, Industrial, Military, Scientific Research
- Shanghai Optics manufactures custom optical mirrors for industries such as life sciences, astronomy, metrology, and solar engineering.
- Products include broadband dielectric and metallic mirrors, laser line mirrors, and ultra-broadband mirrors.
- Coating options: aluminum (visible), silver (visible to NIR), and gold (ideal for IR, >2 µm), with protective dielectric overcoats.
- Mirrors are durable, environmentally resistant, and offer high reflectivity over wide spectral ranges and angles.
- Laser line mirrors are optimized for specific wavelengths and high-energy laser applications.
- Specialty mirrors include:
- Parabolic mirrors: focus or disperse light from a single point.
- Off-axis parabolic mirrors: allow off-axis light deviation, ideal for tight spaces.
- Spherical mirrors: concave (focus light), convex (wide-angle virtual images).
- Right angle mirrors: for 90° light reflection, used in alignment systems.
