vooroppervlakspiegel
Vooroppervlakspiegel, also known as a surface acoustic wave (SAW) mirror, is an optical component used in spectroscopy to reflect light signals. The device is typically constructed using a piezoelectric material, such as lithium niobate or quartz, on which a periodic pattern of metallic strips is deposited.
These metallic strips act as electrodes, causing the piezoelectric material to generate surface acoustic waves when
The vooroppervlakspiegel is often used in various spectroscopic techniques, such as infrared spectroscopy and optical coherent
The operation of the SAW mirror can be understood based on the principles of surface acoustics. When
The vooroppervlakspiegel offers advantages in terms of its linear operation, absence of scattering, and ability to
