SO-P16 SERIES
SO-P16 UV fused silica corner-cube retroreflectors return an incident beam toward its source over a broad range of input angles. They are suited to UV-visible metrology, interferometry, ranging, alignment and tracking systems requiring environmental and thermal stability.
Product Overview
Engineering Guidance
Select diameter and height for the beam footprint and mount, then verify total beam-deviation error, surface flatness, surface quality and dimensional tolerances. Coating choice determines whether reflection relies on total internal reflection or coated faces.
Return-beam accuracy depends on the three internal dihedral angles; avoid mount stress that can distort the corner geometry.
Custom substrate materials, dimensions, angular tolerances and coating bands can be reviewed for prototype and production quantities.
