Optical Mirrors

Optical Mirrors are optical components designed to reflect light. According to the different intentions of designs, the shape of the mirror also varies. Optical mirrors could be flat or curved (convex or concave). These mirrors are devised to control the direction, focus, and characteristics of light beams with precision. At its core, an optical mirror consists of a reflective surface that interacts with incident light, causing it to change direction according to the laws of reflection. The choice of materials, surface coatings, and geometrical configurations determines the mirror's performance characteristics, including reflectance, durabilities, and aberration control. Optical mirrors are indispensable components in a diverse range of industries and research fields, such as medical, semiconductors, astronomy, life science, and metrology. 

Hangzhou Shalom EO offers a wide range of optical mirrors, including dielectric mirrors, metallic mirrors, enhanced Al coated mirrors, protective silver/gold coated mirrors, femtoline low GDD mirrors, high power laser mirrors, ultrafast-enhanced silver mirrors, for applications in the UV, Visible, and IR spectral ranges. The mirrors consist of meticulously engineered dielectric coatings or metallic coatings deposited on high quality durable glass substrates such as Corning 7980, resulting in high reflectivities over various broadband spectra or laser line wavelengths. Stocked and custom optical mirrors are available. One of our know-how is the manufacturing of high-precision optical mirrors, with cutting-edge processing technologies, the mirrors feature superior surface flatness and high damage threshold, being capable of handling high power an demanding laser applications. We have succeeded in developing high power laser mirrors with laser damage threshold of >20J/cm2@1064nm, 10ns, 10Hz pulses excellent for Nd: YAG and Yb: YAG nanosecond pulsed lasers, picosecond pulsed lasers, femtosecond pulsed lasers; as well as CW lasers. Chirped mirrors for dispersion compensation of ultrafast lasers or femtosecond laser are also available. Super Polished Mirror and Mirror Substrates with <1 Angstrom roughness are also available.
