Features

  • Round and Square Versions Available
  • Choose from Protected Aluminum, Silver, or Gold Coating

Our protected aluminum, silver, and gold coatings exhibit exceptional broadband reflectivity and are practical for many applications that are insensitive to the wavefront of a beam. Other typical uses for these mirrors include single-use applications where the experiment itself damages the mirror. A variety of diameters and square sizes are offered, including an 8" x 8" protected aluminum version.

The mirrors you offer on the website have dimensions not bigger than 2 inches square (50.8 mm square). Is it possible to get these silver coated mirrors in the following dimensions: 100 x 100 mm If this is possible what is the price of this product and what is the delivery time? Kind regards, Wendy Mahn

Our round protected aluminum mirrors are available in 1/2", 1", and 2" diameters and exhibit reflectivity in excess of 90% in the 450 nm to 2 µm range. A protective SiO2 overcoat is layered over bare aluminum, creating an oxidation-resistant surface.

The graph to the right shows these mirrors' reflectivity at a 45° angle of incidence (AOI) for unpolarized light. The shaded region denotes the spectral range over which we recommend using these optics. See the Graphs tab above for 8° AOI data and the polarization-dependent reflectivity.

Our round silver-coated mirrors are available in 1/2", 1", and 2" diameters and have the highest reflectivity of all metal-coated mirrors for the visible wavelength range. Silver is an ideal choice for high reflectivity from 450 nm to 20 µm. In order to protect the mirrors from oxidation, they have an overcoat of SiO2.

The graph to the right shows these mirrors' reflectivity at a 45° angle of incidence (AOI) for unpolarized light. The shaded region denotes the spectral range over which we recommend using these optics. See the Graphs tab above for 8° AOI data and the polarization-dependent reflectivity.
