The 35-649 is a high-quality Off-Axis Parabolic Mirror, sourced from the renowned optical vendor, Edmund Optics. This mirror is designed with a circular base shape, featuring a diameter of 50.8mm and a 25.4mm PFL. The effective focal length (EFL) is also 50.8mm, making it a versatile choice for various optical applications.
The mirror boasts a 90° off-axis angle, which is a crucial factor in its design. This off-axis angle, combined with its parabolic shape, allows the mirror to focus light at a specific point without the need for a central obstruction. This feature is particularly beneficial in applications such as beam shaping, off-axis imaging, and light collimation.
The mirror is crafted from Schott's n-BK7 material, a highly respected optical glass known for its excellent transparency and low auto-fluorescence. The mirror's coating is a modified bare gold (edm dbaregoldmodifie), which is renowned for its high reflectivity in the visible and near-infrared regions of the spectrum. This coating ensures optimal performance and longevity, making the mirror a reliable choice for various optical systems.
