Anti-Reflective Coating

An anti-reflective coating, also known as an AR coating or non-reflective coating, is a thin layer of material applied to the surface of a lens or other optical element in order to reduce the amount of light that is reflected off of it.

What is a Laser Etalon?

A laser etalon is a device that is used to accurately measure the frequency of a laser beam. It works by using the principle of interference, which occurs when two waves meet and either reinforce or cancel each other out.

What does HR and OC Mirror Mean?
Optics

What does HR and OC Mirror Mean?

Both HR and OC mirrors are essential components in the operation of a laser. The HR mirror reflects the laser beam back into the cavity, where it is amplified by the laser medium and passed through the OC mirror. The OC mirror then allows a portion of the amplified laser beam to exit the cavity, producing the desired laser output.
