Off-Axis Parabolic (OAP) Mirrors
Description
Off-Axis Parabolic (OAP) Mirrors are mirrors whose reflective surfaces are segments of a parent paraboloid. They achromatically focus a collimated beam or collimate a divergent source, and their off-axis design separates the focal point from the rest of the beam path. The reflective design eliminates phase delays and absorption losses introduced by transmissive optics.
