The VY Optics Corner Cube Mirror Series offers precision-engineered optical components designed for accurate light reflection and measurement. Featuring three mutually perpendicular reflective surfaces, our corner cube mirrors create a unique optical path that reflects light back along its original direction, but in the opposite orientation. This property, known as “retroreflection,” makes them invaluable in a wide range of optical applications.

Key Features

  1. High Precision Retroreflection
    Our corner cube mirrors are meticulously manufactured to ensure that the three reflective surfaces form perfect right angles. This design guarantees that light entering the mirror is accurately reflected back along the same line, making them ideal for applications requiring precise light path control.
  2. Durable and Versatile Materials
    VY Optics corner cubes are available in various materials, including high-quality glass, metals, and plastics. Each material is chosen for its durability and suitability for specific optical environments. Additionally, we offer different reflective coatings to enhance performance based on application requirements.
  3. Exceptional Performance
    Our corner cube mirrors provide consistent and reliable retroreflection across a wide range of wavelengths and light intensities. This ensures high accuracy in measurements and observations, regardless of the operational conditions.
  4. Custom Solutions
    We offer customization options for corner cube mirrors, including variations in size, material, and reflective coatings. Our team works closely with clients to meet specific needs, ensuring the optimal performance for specialized applications.

Applications

Corner cube mirrors play a critical role in various fields and applications, including:

  • Lidar and Ranging Systems: Used as precise reflection targets, corner cubes help determine distances by returning light accurately to the source.
