Double-reflection polygon mirror for high-speed optical coherence microscopy

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We report on a high-speed, high-efficiency, high-duty-cycle, path-length-maintaining and linear beam scanner suitable for en face scanning optical coherence microscopy. Fast transverse beam scanning is achieved by use of a double-reflection polygon mirror (DRPM) rotating at a constant speed. With a motor speed of 18,000rpm and a scanner diameter of 50mm, the DRPM provides a line rate up to 3kHz, ±1.8° scanning range, and 90% duty cycle. A much higher scanning speed and much larger scanning range can be readily achieved by increasing the scanner diameter.
