The glass corner prism is described as an isosceles right-angle prism with its end face toward the right angle. Light enters a large rectangular face and exits the same face after two total internal reflections, returning in the original direction with the image rotated 180° and without dispersion. The custom-coated hollow corner-cube retroreflector uses three mutually perpendicular reflecting faces to return incident rays along their original paths. Within the effective aperture, it returns rays regardless of incidence angle with error <5arcsec. WTS offers custom materials and sizes. Applications include laser interferometry and angle measurement; optical-signal reflection/return for optical-network fault detection and location; laser guidance and satellite ranging; interferometer-arm length-change measurement for gravitational-wave detection; and imaging-path optimization and aberration correction.
