HP 10706A Plane Mirror Interferometer

$275.00

This item is an HP 10706A Plane Mirror Interferometer, but it is lacking the reference mirror component (HP 10724A). This item is one of the �medium-sized (1.5� cube)� components in the Hewlett-Packard Laser Interferometer Dimensional Measurement Apparatus. The interferometer ordinarily consists of several assemblies. The cube assembly (present here) is a beam-splitting interferometer, type 10706A, which consists of a beam-splitter cube that plane polarizes the light. On either side of the cube would be mounted a type HP 10703A Retroreflector. The further addition of an HP 10722A optical wedge would allow the receiver to move relative to the interferometer body. The laser is on the opposite side from the receiver.

The angle of the beam-splitter is not critically set within the cube in order to keep component prices reasonable. For precise positioning it is recommended that the beam-splitter is fixtured using a large leveling base (HP 10711A). These mounts allow for corrections in two directions. Pitch may be adjusted through several degrees about the axis of the mirror component by resetting the cradle position in the base, and yaw may be adjusted using the play in the elongated slots for securing the base. The base of the mount has an open aperture so the beam path may be directed through the base of the fixture. Beams should ONLY be deflected at right angles in each laser / detector assembly in order to avoid depolarization of the laser beams.

These components have been removed from various fixtures. They meet our requirements for second quality used interferometer components. All optical surfaces are free of blemishes and there are no gouges or distortions in any of the parts that would in any way impede accuracy of measurements. Cosmetically these components do have some minor issues. Some of the dress plastic baffles that are inset into the steel frames are absent, and there are some minor scratches in the steel frames. No hardware is included with the interferometer body.
