Laser Scanning Mirrors

Optics balzers offers a wide range of customized laser scanning mirrors.

Laser scanning mirrors.

Laser patterning and on the fly drilling with polygon scanner systems next scan technology duration. Typically coatings come with a secondary reflectivity band for guiding laser beam typically hene 633 nm. The study analyzes polygonal mirror pm scanning heads for one of their most utilized setups. Additionally the mirrors can lead to a periodic motion like the rotating mirror polygons in a barcode scanner or so called resonant galvanometer scanners or to a freely addressable motion as in servo.

The steering of the beam can be one dimensional as inside a laser printer or two dimensional as in a laser show system. This biaxial mems micro electronic mechanical systems mirror operates at 28khz and 60hz with a 40 view angle making it a perfect engine for applications such as laser. Including the group of galvano scanner mirrors where the optical coating a deflection range from 22 58 is taken into account and whose outer dimensions are adapted to the high scanning frequency. Protected aluminum gold silver and dielectric coatings for wavelengths ranging from 250 nm to 10 6 μm.

If a laser is aimed at such a thing while it s spinning the laser beam is deflected into a long line or plane outward from the axle. A laser beam pointed at the mirror is precisely deflected and steered by the scanning mirror to reach a target. With an off axis pm and the incident parallel laser beam orthogonal to the optical axis of the. A central axis through which an axle fits and some number of mirror planes arranged in a circle around it.

Many different mirror coating configurations can be applied on scanning mirror substrates. Ulo optics offers the lsm series of monocrystalline silicon mirrors for use in galvo based scan heads. A 2d mirror with both electrostatic and electromagnetic actuation methods a mems micro electro mechanical system mirror is a tiny solid state mirror mirror on a chip actuated by micro size motors in one or two dimensions. The thickness is optimized to provide low mass while minimizing distortion at high scanning speeds.

A resonant scanner is a type of galvanometric mirror scanner that allows fast image acquisition with single point scanning microscopes true confocal and multiphoton laser scanning. With its cutting edge technology ultimems has demoed a 720hd raster scanning laser projector with the world s first pure electrostatic biaxial raster scanning mirror. It has the additional benefit of providing a better fluorescence signal and reduced photobleaching. Next scan technology 4 851 views.

A scanning mirror is kind of like one slice of a disco ball.
