This is a 203.2 mm diameter parabolic mirror from Edmund Optics, designed for precision applications. The mirror is made from borofloat33, a high-quality glass commonly used in optical systems due to its excellent transmission properties and chemical resistance.
The mirror's geometry is defined by a focal length (EFL) of 1625.6 mm, making it suitable for use in systems where a long focal length is required. The mirror's thickness at the edge is 34.8 mm, providing rigidity and stability. The radius of curvature is 3251.2 mm, which is a critical parameter in determining the mirror's parabolic shape.
The mirror is coated with protected gold, specifically designed for use in the 700-10000 nm wavelength range. This coating ensures high reflectivity and durability, making it ideal for use in a wide range of applications, including infrared spectroscopy and astronomy.
The mirror's parabolic shape is a key feature, designed to collect and focus light from a distant source to a single point. This makes it ideal for use in applications such as telescopes, solar energy concentrators, and laser systems.
