Mangin Mirror
In optics, a Mangin mirror is a negative meniscus lens with the reflective surface on the rear side of the glass forming a curved mirror that reflects light without spherical aberration if certain conditions are met. This reflector was invented in 1876 by a French officer Alphonse Mangin as an improved catadioptric reflector for search lights and is also used in other optical devices. Description The Mangin mirror's construction consists of a concave ( negative meniscus) lens made of crown glass with spherical surfaces of different radii with the reflective coating on the shallower rear surface. The spherical aberration normally produced by the simple spherical mirror surface is canceled out by the opposite spherical aberration produced by the light traveling through the negative lens. Since light passes through the glass twice, the overall system acts like a triplet lens. The Mangin mirror was invented in 1876 by a French military engineer named Colonel Alphonse Mangin as a subs ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
