Knight Optical’s range of Custom Laser Mirrors

15 Oct 2017

Knight Optical supply custom laser mirrors for use at specific laser lines from the UV (200 to 400nm) to the IR (1to 40µm) wavebands.

The laser mirrors can be custom made to include the following range:

1 YAG laser mirrors (High power grade)

2 Excimer laser mirrors (High power grade)

3 Argon-ion laser mirrors (High power grade)

4 Diode & broadband (Ti:Sapphire)

These mirrors are made from vacuum depositing thin films of material that have differing refractive indices & thickness onto suitable substrates. Typical custom laser mirror substrates are calcium fluoride, germanium, sapphire, fused silica and Zinc Selenide which produce a high efficiency reflecting surface at the laser wavelength. The coatings are assembled assuming that the mirror will be working in the plane of incidence. This is essential as any off-axis angles will push the pass band toward the shorter waveband that could be beyond the pass band for one or both polarizations (s and p). If off-axis reflections are needed, such as at 90°, then this coating needs to be applied for an Angle of Incidence (AOI) of 45°.
