Fused Silica is synthetic amorphous silicon dioxide of extremely high purity. This non-crystalline, colorless silica glass combines a low content of inclusions with high refractive index homogeneity, a very low thermal expansion coefficient, and excellent transmittance in the wavelength regime from UV to NIR. As a result, these mirrors will perform better with temperature fluctuations and is ideal for high-energy laser applications due to its high energy damage threshold. For more information, please see our Optical Materials technical note.
Wide Wavelength Range With High Absolute Reflectivity
Using superior ion beam sputtering coating technology, very high absolute reflectivity can be achieved across a large wavelength range. It is advantageous in low light situations when it is critical to collect as much light as possible. Depending on the coating type, you will have as much as RS, RP >99% for 350-1100 nm at 0-50° angle of incidence.
UV-VIS Broadband Dielectric Coating
BB.1 coated mirrors covers the UV to visible wavelength regime from 350 to 700 nm
VIS-NIR Broadband Dielectric Coating
BB.2 coated mirror covers the visible to near IR wavelength regime from 610 to 1130 nm
UV-NIR Broadband Dielectric Coating
BB.3 coated mirror covers the UV to near IR wavelength regime from 350 to 1100 nm.
Durable Dielectric Coatings
All dielectric coating construction is physically more durable than standard metallic coatings. Dielectric mirrors are more resistant to humidity, thermal changes, abrasion and salt exposure.
