Application:
Optical measurement and inspection:
Dove prisms are widely used in equipment that require precise measurement and detection of optical path adjustment, such as lasers, optical communication systems, etc. By rotating the angle of the prism, the direction of the light beam can be changed, thereby achieving precise adjustment and measurement of the optical path.
Peripheral sight:
In the peripheral sight, the Dove prism plays a key role. When the right-angle prism rotates in the horizontal plane, the Dove prism will rotate in the same direction at the same angular speed, ensuring that the coordinate direction of the image observed in the eyepiece remains unchanged. This allows the observer to view the panoramic view without changing the position when the right-angle prism is rotated and scanned.
Color optical products:
The Dove prism can also synthesize light according to different wavelengths and recombine the dispersed light waves into white light or other color light waves. This is widely used in colored optical products, such as colored window glass, photographic filters, etc.
Telescopes and Microscopes:
Dove prisms are used in telescopes and microscopes to magnify the image of an object. When light passes through a Dove prism, it will be refracted, reducing the corresponding angle, causing the observed object to appear magnified.
Angle measurement with optical gyroscope:
The rotational effect of Dove prisms is also widely used in angle measurement and optical gyroscopes. By precisely controlling the rotation angle of the prism, high-precision angle measurement and stable operation of the optical gyroscope can be achieved.
Customized optical system:
Because Dove prisms are highly customizable and can be customized according to specific needs, they are also widely used in customized optical systems in scientific research, industry, medical and other fields.
Wide range of applications:
Dove prisms are widely used in scientific research, industry, medical and other fields. For example, in scientific research experiments, it can be used for spectral analysis, optical measurement, etc.; in industrial production, it can be used for laser processing, optical detection, etc.; in the medical field, it can be used to make medical equipment such as polarization microscopes.
