Manx TTB Mirrors Offer Broader Reflectivity Bandwidth
The TTB range of mirrors from Manx Precision Optics (MPO) is based on a specialist coating design to offer a broader reflectivity bandwidth while maintaining a good Group Delay Dispersion (GDD) and high laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT). At 800 nm, mirrors from the TTB range achieve an LIDT of >= 0.45 J/cm2 in 25 fs … Continue reading

Fabrication of Optical Glass
In a white paper, entitled “Fabrication of optical glass,” Manx Precision Optics (MPO) presents a general overview of optical glass manufacture. The paper summarizes the steps of this process: Rough Shaping – Shaping of raw glass into a blank approximately 1 mm larger than the finished component Milling – Further shaping of optical surfaces to … Continue reading

Uses and Functions of Phase Plate Optics
Phase plate optics provide numerous uses including phase contrast microscopy, ring beam generation, and more. Phase plates are a common name for many types of optical elements, designed to give a wavefront a pre-designed phase profile. This profile can be used for various light shaping applications. This article details the operating principle for phase plate optics … Continue reading
