Ultra-high Precision Optics

Fast Steering Mirrors (FSM) in Bena Optics compensate for input tilt errors generated in a laser and beam-de livery-system. Due to the stiffness of Bena Optics material, Light weight and high reflectivity and be able increase the performance of their applications.

SiC mirrors, with high specific stiffness, thermal conductivity, and chemical stability, are crucial for high-performance optical systems. They provide excellent image quality and resolution across a wide spectrum, making them ideal for telescopes and satellites due to their superior environmental adaptability and low thermal expansion.

Large-aperture aspheric mirrors are primarily used in advanced fields such as aerospace and astronomy. Bena Optics mainly processes materials like fused silica, Zerodur, and SiC ceramics, with additional lightweighting techniques. The surface accuracy of the mirrors is better than RMS λ/100.

With advancements in space optical technology, larger apertures for primary mirrors are essential. Bena Optics specializes in lightweight microcrystalline glass (Zerodur), SiC, and fused quartz. Using CAD optimization and finite element analysis, we achieve minimal deformation and high surface accuracy (0.022λ rms) in ultra-low temperatures (-150℃).

Aspherical lenses by Bena Optics correct spherical aberrations, reducing component count for compact designs. Utilizing advanced equipment (CCOS, IBF, MRF) and ISO 9001 standards, they ensure high precision and RoHS/REACH compliance. Offering tailored solutions, Bena Optics excels in innovative, high-quality optical components and precise measurement/documentation.

Ring laser gyroscope components or so-called supermirrors in certain scientific applications require coated optical elements with extremely low losses. These mirrors need to have a reflectivity greater than 99.998% and a total loss of less than 10 ppm.

Bena Optics’ ultra-large high-precision windows are primarily processed using large ring polishing machines. Bena Optics currently has the largest ring polishing machine with a diameter of 2 meters, capable of processing large windows with a diameter of around 1 meter while ensuring high surface accuracy. Additionally, various materials can be processed, including fused silica, SiC, and Zerodur.
