Retroreflector Design Improvements Boast Alignment Precision
Ultra-stable and Compact Retroreflectors
(PresseBox) - LASER COMPONENTS presents a range of hollow retroreflectors from US manufacturer PLX that have been further improved for more stability and durability in harsh environments such as space and military applications. Thanks to changes in the mounting design as well as the working material, the self-compensating mirror configurations are extremely stable over temperature changes, vibration, and shock conditions.
For ultra-stability, the USHM retroreflector with hard mount has been especially designed to eliminate any stress that has been induced on the mirror assembly and that could distort the exiting wavefront. This is well suited for example for interferometers where high stability of the OPD and concentricity of the apex on the mounting thread are critical requirements.?
In applications where space is limited, retroreflectors of the ULPR series (Ultra Low Profile Retroreflector) are used. They are about 36% lighter than other models and with their round design they can be quickly integrated into bores, optical tables or mirror mounts.
Depending on the application, the hollow retroreflectors come in a range of accuracy options to 0.25 arc seconds beam deviation and ?/10 wave reflected wavefront error. Furthermore, size and coatings can be selected. For projects in aerospace or military, special customized retroreflectors can be developed according to challenging customer specifications.
LASER COMPONENTS is the exclusive distributor of PLX’s products in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom.
LASER COMPONENTS was founded by Günther Paul as a sales company in 1982. Neither the EU nor the euro existed at that time. It was almost impossible for companies to import components from abroad; we became the reliable partner for imported components. Much has changed since then: The internet has made the world smaller, start-ups have become major players, and last but not least, we have also continued to develop.
However, we have always stayed true to our core business: the production and sale of optical and optoelectronic components.
LASER COMPONENTS has grown over the years. In 1986 the first production facility was opened in Germany; sales branches were founded in France, Great Britain, Sweden, and the U.S.A.; and production facilities were set up in Canada and the U.S.A.
The most important resource in our company’s history is our employees; many a 30-year employee anniversary has already been celebrated. Long-term employment relationships ensure our know-how, and we are convinced that we are on the right track with this tradition!
