Advancements in Reflective Microscope Objectives
Advancements in Reflective Microscope Objectives

Key Takeaways:  Reflective microscope objectives are revolutionary in optical design, addressing challenges such as chromatic aberration and enabling diffraction-limited performance across a wide wavelength range.  Their mirror-based construction reduces chromatic aberration and extends working distances, while maintaining stability and precision through uniform thermal coefficients. The two-mirror Schwarzschild objective exemplifies meticulous alignment for optimal performance. These […]

Design of an Off-Axis Parabolic Mirror

Design of an Off-Axis Parabola Mirror Off-axis parabolic mirrors, commonly referred to as OAP mirrors, are engineered to manipulate parallel light beams. Unlike standard flat mirrors, they leverage a parabolic section to achieve specific optical functions. Collimation: When a divergent light beam meets the OAP mirror parallel to its optical axis, the parabolic surface collimates […]
