KENLEY, England, Oct. 27, 2017 —
Fast-focusing on-axis parabolic mirrors from Optical Surfaces Ltd. are precisely manufactured to customer specifications and supplied with full surface quality test data.
The effective f-number that can be achieved with the devices is lower than an off-axis paraboloid, allowing more energy to be concentrated. Generally, alignment of on-axis parabolic mirrors is less critical, thus easier. Circular and irregularly shaped on-axis parabolic mirrors can be produced with a surface accuracy of >λ/20 pv and a microroughness of typically <1.2 nm rms.
Combining these features with an extensive array of high-reflectivity coatings enables researchers to achieve the high optical performance and efficiency required by demanding experiments.
