Mounted hollow corner cube retroreflectors for stable return paths in precision instruments.
Product Overview
A mounted hollow corner cube retroreflector has three mutually perpendicular reflective faces inside a cylindrical housing.
It returns incident light in a parallel, opposite direction through three successive reflections, without transmission through a solid prism.
Aperture, housing dimensions, mounting interfaces, reflective-face material, dihedral-angle tolerances, and reflective coatings can be specified to match drawings or system requirements.
Applications
- FTIR Spectrometers: Returns light through an interferometer arm while reducing sensitivity to small angular changes of the moving reflector.
- Laser Tracking Systems: Acts as the optical return element in a suitable target assembly for distance and position measurement.
- Open-Path Gas Analyzers: Returns a transmitted beam across the measurement path so the analyzer can measure gas absorption.
- Optical Delay Lines: Returns the beam from a translating stage to vary optical path length while preserving the return direction.
