Description
This precision-engineered pair of wedge mounting adapters is designed to accommodate glass wedges up to 4 mm thick, such as those offered by Novanta, enabling fine dispersion tuning in pulse compression systems. One adapter is equipped with an M4 threaded mount for direct attachment to pedestal posts, while the other features a 20 mm mounting grid compatible with M2 screws, making it ideal for integration with standard compact translation stages (available separately). The design ensures minimal spacing between the wedges, effectively reducing unwanted dispersive effects and enhancing overall system performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the maximum thickness of glass wedges these adapters can accommodate?
These adapters are designed to accept glass wedges up to 4 mm in thickness.
How are the adapters mounted?
One adapter can be directly screwed onto M4 threaded pedestal posts, while the other features a 20 mm grid for M2 screws, allowing direct mounting onto standard compact translation stages.
Is there a recommended maximum width for the glass wedges used with these adapters?
While there's no strict limitation on wedge width, a maximum of 35 mm is recommended to ensure optimal performance.
How do these adapters minimize dispersive effects in a pulse compression setup?
The design allows for a minimal gap between the mounted wedges, which helps reduce angular dispersive effects, enhancing the precision of pulse compression systems
Are translation stages required for using these adapters?
Translation stages are optional. One adapter is compatible with M4 threaded pedestal posts, and the other can be mounted onto standard compact translation stages if desired.
