Optical Surfaces Ltd. offer a range of optical mounts designed to mechanically support parabolic, spherical, and flat mirrors from 100 to 600mm (4 to 24 inches) in diameter.
Employing high precision optics in applications where optical stability is critical is pointless unless they are positioned with absolute precision and stress-free. To fulfil this need, Optical Surfaces designed the OS Series of optical mounts to overcome the ease of use and poor ...
Drawing upon decades of experience - Optical Surfaces Ltd. is regularly selected by leading laser research groups including AWE, ELI, LULI, and CLF Rutherford to provide ultra-smooth focusing mirrors and other related optics for the most demanding high-power laser applications.
Benefitting from a uniquely stable production facility based deep inside a chalk cliff, Optical Surfaces skilled engineering team are world renowned for producing off-axis parabolic mirrors with surface accuracy, surface microroughness ...
Optical Surfaces Ltd. is a leading international manufacturer of large diameter, ultra-smooth off-axis parabolic mirrors for demanding applications.
Looking to develop their next generation of ultra-high resolution holographic diffraction gratings – Wasatch Photonics (Logan, Utah, USA) commissioned Optical Surfaces Ltd. to manufacture two large diameter off-axis parabolic mirrors – key components in their production process.
Widely used as optical components to separate light into its component wavelengths, Wasatch Photonics' holographic diffraction gratings ...
Optical Surfaces Ltd. is a leading manufacturer of large, high precision optical flats and coated flat mirrors including a range of non-circular shapes such as elliptical and octagonal.
Light weighted elliptical flat mirror
When the maximum possible clear aperture is required in a folded Newtonian or Cassegrain telescope design, the optical component of choice is an elliptically shaped coated flat mirror. Elliptical flat mirrors are used to fold and re-direct optical beams. ...
Optical Surfaces Ltd. is a leading producer of on-axis parabolic mirrors for ground-breaking applications in fundamental, high-power laser physics research.
Benefiting from an ultra-stable manufacturing environment and employing proprietary production techniques the highly experienced and skilled engineers at Optical Surfaces can, depending on the surface accuracy required, generate very fast focusing on-axis parabolic mirrors (< f 0.7).
On-axis parabola are the fast-focusing mirror of choice suitable for both broadband and multiple wavelength ...
