Create thousands of intriguing new laser experiments with one, easy-to-use, durable kit! This innovative collection of nine unique optical mounts offers you and your students endless possibilities for exploring the many aspects of modern optical technology. Each optic element is color-coded for ease of use and creates a distinctive beam or pattern effect. Simply screw elements into a laser's standard opticmount (3/4 x 32 inch thread) and you're ready to:

• Conduct experiments utilizing geometric principles and optics
• Examine polarization of laser beams
• Investigate basic and advanced diffractive principles and optics
• View light traveling through optical fiber
• Create real-world problem-solving exercises using geometry and trigonometry

Each of the nine optical mounts in the kit is precisely machined from a solid aluminum billet and designed with a recess hole for totally enclosing the optical component for mechanical durability and stability. After machining, all optical mounts are coated with a cratch-resistant, protective colored anodizing. The
anodized coating of each mount is a specific color corresponding to the color codes described in the instruction manual. The full-color manual included with the kit ontains 16 pages with step-by-step set-up instructions, actual photographs of images created with the optics mounts, explanations for each of the nine mounts, suggestions for labs and examples of real-world applications. In addition, four pages of technical eferences explain geometric and diffractive physics, polarization and fiber optics.
