This off-axis parabolic mirror, sourced from Edmund Optics, is a Protected Aluminum 50A mirror with a 12.7mm diameter and an effective focal length (EFL) of 101.6mm. The mirror's off-axis angle is 90°, making it suitable for a wide range of applications that require off-axis reflectivity.
The mirror is made from BK7 Schott glass, a popular choice for its high refractive index and low dispersion. The protective aluminum coating on the front surface enhances the mirror's durability and resistance to environmental factors, ensuring longevity and reliability.
The mirror's geometry is carefully designed with a parabolic shape, providing a high level of optical accuracy. The diameter of the mirror is 12.7mm, and its clear aperture is 19.05mm. The radius of curvature is 101.6mm, which, combined with the mirror's EFL, provides a high-quality, focused beam.
This mirror is designed to operate at a wavelength of 588nm, making it suitable for applications that require this specific wavelength. The mirror's coating and geometry are optimized for this wavelength, ensuring optimal performance.
