Latest News OSL Optics to help unlock the secrets of Jupiter's Icy Moons Optical Surfaces Ltd. (OSL) announces selection by Hensoldt Optronics GmbH, formerly Airbus (Oberkochen, Germany) to supply key precision optics for optical testing the Ganymede Laser Altimeter (GALA), one of 10 scientific instruments on-board the JUICE (Jupiter Icy Moon Explorer) mission. The JUICE mission is part of the European Space Agency (ESA) cosmic vision programme and its objective is to study Jupiter's plasma environment and the three icy moons Ganymede, Europa and ... Read More Off-Axis Paraboloids Enhance Laser Power Density Optical Surfaces Ltd. reports on increased demand from high power laser research groups around the world for off-axis paraboloid mirrors to be used as the primary focusing element for their Petawatt laser beam lines. Off-axis paraboloids offer the advantage of an unobstructed aperture and access to the focal plane. In addition, due to their completely achromatic performance, they are especially suitable for broadband or multiple wavelength applications. Using proprietary production techniques, and ... Read More Optical Surfaces Ltd Reports on Program of Investment Optical Surfaces Ltd (Kenley, UK), a leading producer of ultra-high precision optics and optical systems, reports on an ongoing program of investment in new staff and facilities following consistent growth in sales over the last 3 years. Dr Aris Kouris, Sales Director commented "Lead by increased international demand for challenging one-off's and batches of high precision optics from the fundamental physics, astronomy and defence communities in particular we have achieved over ... Read More Fizeau Interferometer for Testing Very Large Diameter Flats Optical Surfaces Ltd has developed a 600mm Fizeau interferometer enabling it to now offer quality testing of flats in a single aperture up to 600mm in diameter. This is a capability that only a few optical testing and manufacturing centres around the world possess. Housed in an ultra-stable testing environment, this interferometric set-up will allow direct qualification of larger flat mirrors up to 600mm diameter by testing them directly over their ...
