Tip/Tilt Mirrors for Precise and Highly Dynamic Beam Steering

Fast steering mirrors: standard products show the trade-off between angular travel and dynamic performance. — Fast steering mirror concepts: trade-off between angular range and dynamic performance depending on acquisition and tracking requirements.

When it comes to optical beam steering, high dynamics, precise positioning, and control stability are critical to overall system performance. Applications such as laser beam delivery, beam steering, and optical stabilization demand fast response times, reproducible motion, and reliable disturbance compensation.

PI’s solutions address these requirements by providing high bandwidths, excellent repeatability, and precise closed-loop control. Customers can therefore count on stable operation of their optical systems, accurate beam alignment, and efficient process optimization — even under demanding ambient conditions.

PI’s tip/tilt mirrors are based on piezo and voice-coil technologies and provide precise, highly dynamic displacement for a wide range of demanding applications in research and industry.
