Laser Mirrors for High Power Picosecond Applications

27 Jan 2020

New advanced ion-beam-sputtered (IBS) coatings by EKSMA Optics feature extremely high picosecond laser induced damage threshold, allowing to increase laser power limits and to extend the lifetime of optical components. These components are designed to be used in high power ultrashort pulse industrial lasers and laser systems.

We offer laser mirror coatings with R>99.9% and guaranteed damage threshold value of >3 J/cm2 at 1030 nm or >2.5 J/cm2 at 515 nm. Dual band antireflection coating at 1030+515 nm with R<0.1% for each wavelength was designed using the same technique and has a damage threshold of >2 J/cm2.

Laser induced damage threshold measurements were performed according to ISO 21254 standard procedures 1000-on-1 with high power lasers operating at 20 kHz repetition rate and 10 ps pulse duration.
