High speed mirrors for laser scanners

Mersen manufactures high-performance laser galvo scanning mirrors from 10mm to 300mm apertures for single pair consumption with a range of high reflective coatings.

Sintered SiC is the base material for light and agile mirrors:

• High stiffness
• Ultra light weight
• Low moment of inertia
• High resonant frequency
• Thermal stability
• Low dynamic flatness PV
• Non toxic (Beryllium replacement)

Mersen high speed mirrors are used and established into high-end markets:

• Geodesy
• Airborne and Space scanning systems
• High power Laser material processing UV-IR, such as machining, marking, additive manufacturing
• Metrology and wafer inspection
• Bio / medical ophthalmology
• Streak cameras, targeting applications
• Security
• Sensing applications LIDAR

Expertise

OptoSiC® core knowledge comes directly from the laser galvo scanning industry, and a deep understanding of the needs of laser system, scanhead and optical designers, and the system processing limitations generated by the performance bottleneck using conventional scanning optics. Most importantly, by understanding a large variation of laser application solutions, this gives us the expertise to understand how to develop ultra-high performance optics specific to applied use.
