BK7 Retroreflectors-manufacture,factory,supplier from China

A corner cube (or cube corner), also known as a retroreflector, is an optical component with the unique ability to return an incoming beam of light directly towards its point of origin regardless of the beam's angle of entry. This property makes this prism type ideal for a wide variety of applications, such as laser resonator cavities, land surveying, ground based range-finding, satellite communications and space vehicle docking.Wisoptic offer a wide variety of retroreflectors at competitive prices and lead times, and are able to accommodate the most demanding requirements.

Right angle prisms are generally used to bend image paths or redirect light at 90°. This produces a left handed image and depending on the orientation of the prism, the image may be inverted or reverted.

Optical beamsplitters play a vital role in many laser-based measurement and positioning systems. Although the operation of a typical beamsplitter is conceptually simple, its performance characteristics can dramatically affect the accuracy and repeatability of the overall system. Consequently, understanding the variables that distinguish beamsplitter performance is an important step in comparing and specifying components.

Wisoptic' standard and precision quality laser windows are fabricated from a variety of substrate materials, e.g.  UVFS and N-BK7. They are available either with or without AR coatings, and with dia from 12.5 to 101.6 mm and thickness from 1 to 15 mm. Also we offer uncoated rectangular windows with aperture from 15 x 20 to 50.8 x 50.8 mm and thickness from 2 to 10 mm.

When classified by coatings, Optical Mirrors consist of dielectric mirrors and metallic mirrors. Dielectric mirror is an optical mirror made of thin layers of dielectric coating layers deposited on an optical substrate (UVFS or BK7). WISOPTIC offer dielectric laser mirrors for laser lines, for narrowband or broadband wavelength ranges covering spectrum from UV to IR. Metallic mirrors are coated with protected gold, silver, or aluminum. Metallic mirrors are widely used due to a moderate level of reflection over a very broad spectral range.

Front surface mirrors are coated with aluminum or dielectrics for maximum reflection. WISOPTIC provides both kinds of front surface mirrors: metal coated mirror and dielectric coated mirror.Dielectric mirror is an optical mirror made of thin layers of dielectric coating layers deposited on an optical substrate (UVFS or BK7).  Dielectric laser mirrors are used for laser lines, for narrowband or broadband wavelength ranges covering spectrum from UV to IR. Metallic mirrors are coated with protected gold, silver, or aluminum.

Polarization optics is important for both intra and extra cavity use. By using high contrast thin film polarizers in their design, laser engineers can save weight and volume within the laser system without influencing the output. Compared with polarizing prisms, polarizers have larger incident angle and can be made with larger apertures. Compared with polarizers made from birefringent crystals, the advantage of thin film polarizers made from UVFS or N-BK7 is that they can be fabricated in very large sizes, therefore are particularly well suited for high laser powers and UV wavelengths.

Optical Prisms are widely used to redirect light at a designated angle. They are ideal for ray deviation, or for adjusting the orientation of an image. An optical prism’s design determines how light interacts with it. When light enters an optical prism, it either reflects off an individual surface or several surfaces before exiting, or is refracted as it travels through the substrate.  WISOPTIC offers a wide range of optical prisms with various designs, substrates, or coatings.

Optical filters are used to selectively transmit or reject a wavelength or range of wavelengths. Their applications include fluorescence microscopy, spectroscopy, clinical chemistry, machine vision inspection, etc. Optical filters are widely used in light system of life science, imaging, industrial, or defense industries. For example, Bandpass interference filters are designed to transmit a portion of the spectrum, while rejecting all other wavelengths. Notch filters reject a portion of the spectrum, while transmitting all other wavelengths.

Optical Lenses are designed to focus or diverge light and for imaging or alignment in an optical system. Optical Lenses, which may consist of a single or multiple elements, have a variety of applications. Lens forms can be divided into simple lenses (which include plano-convex lens, plano-concave lens, double-convex lens, double-concave lens, cylinder lens, drum lens, spherical lens in different shapes), achromatic lenses compound lens and multiple types.

Optical filter is usually a component with a wavelength-dependent transmittance or reflectance. It's used to selectively transmit or reject a wavelength or range of wavelengths.  Filters with particularly weak wavelength dependence of the transmittance are called neutral density filters. The general applications of optical filters include fluorescence microscopy, spectroscopy, clinical chemistry, machine vision inspection, etc. Bandpass interference filters are designed to transmit a portion of the spectrum, while rejecting all other wavelengths.

Wisoptic’s optical mirrors are available for use with light in the UV, VIS, and IR spectral regions. Optical mirrors with a metallic coating have high reflectivity over the widest spectral region, whereas mirrors with a broadband dielectric coating have a narrower spectral range of operation; the average reflectivity throughout the specified region is greater than 99%.

Potassium dihydrogen phosphate KH2PO4 (KDP) is a transparent dielectric material best known for its nonlinear optical and electro-optical properties. Because of its nonlinear optical properties, it has been incorporated into various laser systems for harmonic generation and optoelectrical switching.

The most notable benefit of aspheric lenses is their ability to correct for spherical aberration, an optical effect which causes incident light rays to focus at different points when forming an image, creating a blur. Spherical aberration is commonly seen in spherical lenses, such as plano-convex or double-convex lens shapes, but aspheric lenses focus light to a small point, creating comparatively no blur and improving image quality.

Bandpass Filters are used in a variety of industries, including machine vision,factory automation, security and surveillance, license plate recognition, medical and life science, agricultural inspection, aerial imaging, motion analysis, photography and cinematography.WISOPTIC's bandpass filters include mass collection of  dielectric-coated filters, colored glass filters, neutral density filters, spatial filters, and tunable optical filter based on liquid crystal technology. Specifically speaking, e.g.

LN crystals are nonhygroscopic and have low absorption coefficient and insert loss. In addition, LN crystal can operate stably in a wide temperature range, which makes them the main EO crystal applied in military laser systems.LN electro-optic Q-switches are widely used in Er:YAG, Ho:YAG, Tm:YAG lasers, and are suitable for low-power Q-switched output, especially in laser ranging. LN Pockels cells can be very compact, and the half-wave voltage can be very low. By doping MgO in LiNbO3, the damage threshold of LN Pockels cells can been increased dramatically.

SHG of Nd:Laser - KTP is the most commonly used material for frequency doubling of Nd:YAG and other Nd-doped lasers, particularly when the power density is at a low or medium level.

The improved hydrothermal-grown KTP crystal overcomes the common electrochromism damage of flux-grown KTP. The hydrothermal-grown KTP (HGTR-KTP, or GTR-KTP) has high damage threshold, large effective electro-optic coefficients and lower half-wave voltage.  KTP EO Q-switches made by HGTR-KTP crystals utilize thermally compensated double crystal designs. They are mainly used in pulse lasers with narrow pulse width and high repetition frequency.

Diffusion bonded crystal consists of two, three or more parts of crystals with different dopants or same dopant with different doping levels. This material is commonly made by bonding one laser crystal with one or two undoped crystals by precise optical contact and further processing under high temperature.

The periodic polarized KTP (PPKTP) is a novel nonlinear optical material that can be customized to achieve all of the nonlinear applications required in the entire KTP crystal transmission band, without the phase matching limitations of conventional KTP. Moreover, the effective nonlinear coefficient of PPKTP is about 3 times higher than that of conventional KTP. In the nonlinear application of conventional KTP, the crystal must have a single domain structure, but PPKTP crystal has an artificially induced periodic domain structure.
