Latest News  Precision Windows for High Power Laser ExperimentsBenefiting from an ultra-stable production environment and proprietary polishing techniques - Optical Surfaces Ltd. is able to routinely produce high-power laser windows up to 600mm in diameter with typical wavefront error of lambda/10 and surface finish of 40/20 to 10/5. Working with a range of optical materials including BK-7 and fused silica, which offer good homogeneity and transmission from the UV to the Near-IR, Optical Surfaces is today a preferred supplier ... Aspheric Optics for Nuclear Research Laser FacilitiesOptical Surfaces Ltd. is an international supplier of diffraction-limited aspheric lenses for nuclear research laser facilities. Nuclear research laser facilities around the world today commonly use powerful amplified ultra-short duration pulses of coherent light to deliver massive energy densities at a given target. The synchronised delivery of such high-power pulses generates extreme conditions that allow scientists to carry out state of the art nuclear research and to study the conditions that ... Precision Lenses Enable Ground-breaking Synchrotron MeasurementsUsing ultra smooth transmission optics supplied by Optical Surfaces Ltd, the MAX IV Laboratory has managed to achieve measurement of the smallest ever electron beam emittance on their state-of-the-art 3 GeV synchrotron storage ring. The MAX IV Laboratory is Sweden's internationally renowned national synchrotron radiation facility. Hosted at Lund University, it operates the world´s first fourth-generation storage ring, which uses a multi-bend achromat lattice and innovative accelerator engineering solutions to deliver ... Illustrated Guide to Aligning Off-Axis ParaboloidsOptical Surfaces Ltd. announces that it produced an updated version of its popular 'Practical Guide to Off-Axis Paraboloid Alignment Procedures'. Off-axis paraboloids, also referred to as off-axis parabolic mirrors, provide the advantage of an unhindered aperture and access to the focal plane. They are ideal for broadband or multiple wavelength applications, thanks to their complete achromatic performance. Off-axis paraboloids often deliver the most cost-effective solution without compromising performance to many problems ... |
