Mirror Mount, ZeroDrift, 1 in. Diameter, Two 100 TPI Hex Key
Model: SS100T-F2H
Product Series Overview
Suprema® ZeroDrift™ Thermally Compensated Mirror MountsThe Suprema® SS100T-F2H is the first thermally compensated optical mount ever made with ZeroDrift™ Technology. Because the thermal deflection of optical mounts can be characterized, and these deflections can controlled through thermal expansion compensation, the thermal deflection of an optical mount can be nearly eliminated. This patent-pending innovation is called ZeroDrift™ Technology. After a thermal fluctuation, most high-performance mirror mounts, while they return to their original alignment within a few microradians, but experience significant misalignment at elevated temperatures. Application of ZeroDrift™ technology to Suprema™ mirror mounts has cut thermal drift by 85%.
What is Thermal Drift Compensation?
Because the thermal deflection of optical mounts can be characterized, and these deflections can be controlled through thermal expansion compensation, the thermal deflection of an optical mount can be nearly eliminated. This patent-pending innovation is called ZeroDrift™ Technology.
How Much does ZeroDrift™ Technology Reduce Drift?
Our tests show that ZeroDrift™ technology reduced the thermal drift of a stainless steel mirror mount by 85%. The graph shows thermal drift of 6 µrad and shift of 1 µrad.
Reduced Mounting Stress
ZeroDrift technology has been combined with our low wavefront distortion (LWD) retainer to hold mirrors in a way that will not induce optical distortion. It uses an axial three-point mounting method to gently, but securely, hold optics with tight flatness tolerances.
Locking Actuators
For long-term stability, Suprema® ZeroDrift™ Mirror Mounts feature lockable adjustment screws. The jam nut lock, used for SS100T, exerts an axial force on the adjustment screw which locks the mirror mount's alignment in place and can be tightened by hand. The lever lock, used for the ST05 models, and the flexure lock built with an AJS bushing, used for SU100TW, exert a tangential force on the screw to prevent rotation. Adjustment and locking actions for these models are accomplished using a single tool from the same side of the mount.
