Avantier Inc.
Off-Axis Parabolic Mirrors Choosing an Off-Axis Parabolic Mirror. Key parameters of an off-axis parabolic mirror are the off-axis angle (OAA), the off-axis distance (OAD), and the focal length. Choose an appropriate OAP mirror by deriving the desired reflected focal length from your desired beam diameter. The small angle approximation leads to a very simple relationship between these two parameters: Beam Diameter = 2 x sin( ) x Reflected Focal Length. Where is the divergent half-angle of the incident light. In fiber... (read more)Browse Optical Mirrors Datasheets for Avantier Inc. -
