New product launch: Plano-concave cylindrical mirror

New Product Release | UltraOpto Concave Cylindrical Mirror: A Cost-Effective Choice for One-Dimensional Beam Shaping

Focusing on the common requirements for regulating the line beam optical path, UltraOpto has newly launched concave cylindrical mirrors. With high-precision concave cylindrical forming technology and pure reflective optical design, it creates core components for one-dimensional beam divergence, beam expansion, and beam shaping, balancing performance accuracy and cost advantages, and is suitable for the stable operation of full-wave optical systems.

The product adopts a dedicated structure of a plane and a concave cylinder, achieving uniform divergence and controllable beam expansion of the line beam in a single dimension, while the optical path in the other direction remains unchanged. It can efficiently and precisely convert point spots to line spots. The surface accuracy is ≤λ/10@633nm, with no spherical aberration or distortion throughout, resulting in a regular and uniform line spot contour, perfectly matching the requirements of one-dimensional optical path shaping.

The pure reflective design completely eliminates material dispersion and chromatic aberration, covering the full spectrum from ultraviolet to infrared. It selects high-quality base materials such as ultraviolet fused silica, silicon, and germanium, and is paired with band-specific high-reflection coatings, achieving a reflectivity of over 98%, with low scattering and low absorption, maximizing the retention of beam energy, and is suitable for multi-band optical systems.

It adopts laser-level ultra-precision processing technology, with a mirror surface finish of up to 10/5. The vacuum ion sputtering coating has high density and strong adhesion, with excellent laser damage threshold, compatible with medium and high-power pulsed/continuous line lasers, and maintains stable performance over a wide temperature range, meeting the demands of harsh industrial conditions and high-precision scientific research.

The concave structure is easy to process and has outstanding cost-effectiveness. It covers a wide range of standard through-hole sizes and curvature radii, and supports full-dimensional customization of non-standard sizes, curvatures, and coatings. Protective chamfering processing can be done as needed, easily adapting to various personalized optical path layouts.

It is widely used in fields such as line laser marking/cutting, semiconductor line scanning detection, spectral instruments, lidar, and holographic lighting, providing a cost-effective and highly stable professional solution for one-dimensional beam control!
