CRYSTAL MOUNT FOR LASER APPLICATION |
摘要 |
An optical crystal can be mounted to a mounting block configured to receive the crystal. A base portion on the mounting block utilizes two walls forming a corner and a single biasing spring clip to secure the crystal. The spring clip applies forces in two different directions substantially orthogonal to the two walls. The spring clip is based off a symmetrical geometry which applies nearly the same force application in both directions. The spring also features bend regions that contact the crystal in such a way as to reduce the presence of point loads or stress risers. The length of contact along the crystal is maximized, allowing for proper force distribution and a sufficient surface are contact for static holding capabilities. |

1. An apparatus, comprising:
a) a body comprising:
a receptacle for receiving a crystal, the receptacle extending in the longitudinal direction, the receptacle comprising a first wall extending in the longitudinal direction and a second wall extending in the longitudinal direction, the first wall and the second wall being substantially perpendicular to one another to form a corner region extending in the longitudinal direction; b) one or more spring clips securable to the body configured to exert forces on two different faces of a crystal to push the crystal into a corner of the receptacle, wherein the one or more spring clips include a spring clip having
a first bend region extending in the longitudinal direction;a second bend region extending in the longitudinal direction, wherein the first bend region is connected to the second bend region; a first leaf region connected to the first bend region, the first leaf region extending laterally away from the first bend region;
a second leaf region connected to the second bend region, the second leaf region extending laterally away from the second bend region. |
