These Cage-Cube-Mounted Turning Mirrors provide additional flexibility when building optical devices based upon our 16 mm cage system and SM05 lens tube products. The mounted turning mirrors are prealigned so that the reflected beam exits to within ±20 arcmin of 90º, which can reduce the time needed for aligning the mirror in a setup. For higher accuracy or more alignment flexibility, see our 90º turning mirror kinematic mounts. The turning mirrors on this page are available with any of seven reflective coatings: UV-enhanced aluminum, protected aluminum, protected silver, protected gold, E02 broadband dielectric (400 - 750 nm), E03 broadband dielectric (750 - 1100 nm), or K13 Nd:YAG dielectric (532 nm and 1064 nm). A complete list of mirror specifications is provided on the Specs tab. Reflectance plots and data are provided on the Graphs tab.
The bottom of the CCM5 cubes have either an 8-32 tapped hole for imperial parts or an M4 tapped hole for metric parts. The entrance and exit ports of these cubes also have SM05 threading (0.535"-40) as well as 4-40 taps on their sides which accept our SM05 Lens Tubes and Ø4 mm cage rods, respectively (refer to the images to the right and above). These mounted turning mirrors can be connected to other cage cubes through the use of our cage rods and SRSCA adapters.

The shaded regions in the graphs denote the ranges over which we guarantee the specified reflectance. Please note that the reflectance outside of these bands is typical and can vary from lot to lot, especially in out-of-band regions where the reflectance is fluctuating or sloped.
UV-Enhanced Aluminum Coating (250 - 450 nm)
Protected Aluminum Coating (450 nm - 20 µm)
Protected Silver Coating (450 nm - 20 µm)
Protected Gold Coating (800 nm - 20 µm)
These plots show the reflectivity of our -E02 (400 - 750 nm) and -E03 (750 - 1100 nm) dielectric coatings for a typical coating run. The shaded region in each graph denotes the spectral range over which the coating is highly reflective. Due to variations in each run, this recommended spectral range is narrower than the actual range over which the optic will be highly reflective. If you have any concerns about the interpretation of this data, please contact Tech Support. For applications that require a mirror that bridges the spectral range between the dielectric coatings, please consider a metallic mirror.

These plots show the reflectance of our Nd:YAG (532 nm and 1064 nm) dielectric coating for a typical coating run. Although there will be variations in the broadband reflectance from run to run, this optic is guaranteed to meet the reflectivity specification at 532 nm and 1064 nm (see the table on the Overview tab). If you have any concerns about the interpretation of this data, please contact Tech Support.

 (posted 2019-12-09 10:26:42.523) The M4 tapped hole placed at the bottom of the CCM5 cubes has a critical drawback: instead of having a mechanical top, the hole directly reaches one of the surfaces of the Silver Turning Prism Mirror. We have screwed a long M4 screw till the end and it has produced an unintended rotation of the prealigned mirror, which has destroyed the factory precision of this piece. This is an expected use case that should be avoided by a proper design of the piece. llamb
 (posted 2019-12-10 09:52:09.0) Thank you for your feedback, and I apologize for the inconvenience with this product. I have added this product idea into our internal engineering forum for improvement. I have also reached out to you directly to assess if a return or replacement is needed. In general, we do not recommend threading a screw into the CCM5- series turning mirrors further than 0.235". cmar5964
 (posted 2016-07-15 17:40:39.563) From the step file it looks like the prism hypotenuse and thus reflecting surface is not actually the diagonal through the cube. Instead, I measure it to be offset by about 108 microns. This would mean that a beam entering centrally exits slightly off center. Is that actually the case or an artifact of the conversion from step to ipt that I have done? |
