This off-axis parabolic mirror, sourced from Edmund Optics, is a high-quality optical component designed for use in a variety of applications. With a diameter of 50.8mm and a protected gold coating, it offers excellent performance and durability.
The mirror has an effective focal length (EFL) of 108.89mm, making it suitable for systems that require a longer focal length. The off-axis angle is 30 degrees, which is useful in applications where a straight-on reflection is not desired or possible. The mirror's geometry also includes a parabolic shape with a radius of curvature of 203.2mm, which is designed to collect or focus light at a single point.
The mirror is made from N-BK7 Schott glass, a common and reliable material for optical components. The protected gold coating on the front surface (edm prgold 700-10000) enhances the mirror's reflectivity in the infrared spectrum, between 700nm and 10000nm. This makes it ideal for use in systems that operate in the infrared range, such as thermal imaging or night vision systems.
