13 Jan 2022 LASER COMPONENTS is entering its 26th year as manufacturers of the highest quality optical coatings. We remain one of the only manufacturers worldwide capable of producing Gaussian mirrors, also known as VRM (variable reflecting mirrors. These special optics are characterised by a degree of reflection which slopes from the centre of the part in a Gaussian distribution.
These Gaussian mirrors are used in unstable resonators where they help produce high quality laser beams with low beam divergence at high pulse energies. In frequency-doubled systems they are used to achieve a greater pump efficiency. The Gaussian mirrors are extremely stable and therefore suited for the highest power levels.
They are generally manufactured as custom parts and are characterised and measured using proprietary method yielding high quality and strict adherence to customer specifications.
