Optical Surfaces Limited Articles
Fast focusing mirrors extend capabilities of laser-driven proton beams
Optical Surfaces has received a follow-on order from the Scottish Centre for the Application of Plasma-based Accelerators (SCAPA) at the University of Strathclyde (UK), for two ultra-high performance off-axis parabolic mirrors.
Proprietary technique produces ultra smooth laser mirrors
Optical Surfaces Ltd. has developed an advanced pitch-polishing technique that consistently produces ultra-smooth off-axis parabolic (OAP) mirrors, a crucial element for high-power laser experiments. This proprietary method achieves surface microroughness of less than 1nm RMS, significantly improving focusing performance by reducing the scattering effects that can arise from surface texture irregularities.
High-precision dichroic beamsplitters
Optical Surfaces has announced its range of high-precision dichroic beamsplitters for use in scientific research.
Improving telescope vision with artificial guide stars
Optical Surfaces has reported a supply of fourteen 100mm diameter field selector mirrors and a 400mm diameter reference flat to TNO for a Laser Launch System designed to improve telescope vision with artificial guide stars.
Aspheric lenses for high power laser research
Optical Surfaces has announced its large diameter aspheric lenses, used as critical focusing optics in high-power laser research.
Reference flat for space optics
Optical Surfaces has been commissioned by JEEWOO Photonics, based in Daejeon, South Korea, to produce a 700mm diameter reference flat.
Low profile mirror mount offers stable platform
Optical Surfaces has developed a new low profile mirror mount that provides a secure platform for large and heavy high-precision mirrors.
High stability beam collimators for military optics testing
Optical Surfaces has supplied two reflective beam collimators to a leading European supplier of high precision optics to military and defence contractors.
Optical Surfaces’ custom off-axis paraboloids
Optical Surfaces’ has announced its custom off-axis paraboloid mirrors for various optical system applications.
High magnification of small diameter laser beams
Optical Surfaces has developed a proprietary artefact suppression method allowing them to design and produce a novel high magnification reflective beam expander for small aperture laser applications.
High resolution imaging of astronomical objects
Optical Surfaces reports that it has received a follow-up order from Magdalena Ridge Observatory (MRO) to produce three second generation off-axis beam compressors to expand the capabilities of the facility’s optical interferometer.
High-precision ellipsoidal mirrors
Optical Surfaces has announced its precision ellipsoidal mirrors for demanding applications in telescopes, beam expanders and high-resolution x-ray imaging instruments.
Optical Surfaces expands range of large diameter mirror mounts
The OS series of large-diameter mirror mounts from Optical Surfaces are proven to provide a secure platform for larger, high-precision flat, off-axis, and spherical mirrors in stability-critical applications.
Advanced instruments for performing accurate lens measurements
Optical Surfaces reports how high precision off-axis parabolic mirrors it is supplying to OPTIKOS Corporation (Wakefield, USA) function as key components for collimation in their OpTest product line of MTF measurement devices.
Flat etalons improve precision of Fabry–Pérot interferometers
Etalons are widely used in telecommunications, lasers, and spectroscopy to control and measure the wavelengths of light.
Large diameter custom and prototype lenses
Optical Surfaces is a manufacturer of precision custom and prototype lenses for the most demanding camera, collimator, and optical imaging system applications.
Easy alignment beam expander modules
Optical Surfaces Ltd has developed a new modular approach enabling simple set-up of a larger diameter beam expander assembly aligned to your optical experiment.
Optical Surfaces and IPPL collaborate on off-axis parabolic mirrors
Optical Surfaces has collaborated with the Institute of Plasma Physics & Lasers at the Hellenic Mediterranean University (Rethymno, Crete, Greece) to develop high quality customised optics, including off-axis parabolic mirrors, as key focusing elements for their 'Zeus' 45 TW ultrashort laser pulse system.
Large output beam expander optics for interferometric testing
Optical Surfaces has released a large output beam expander optics enabling interferometers to be used for testing of large optical flats up to 600mm in diameter.
Spectrograph optics for space applications
Spectrographs are the ‘go to’ scientific instruments used to study the chemical / physical conditions that exist through a cross-section of space. Combined with a terrestrial or spaceborne telescope a spectrograph can reveal the details that are stored in the spectral distribution of light from a distant star or galaxy.
