Ultra-broadband Metallic Mirrors
 
These mirrors provide a high reflectance over a very broad spectral bandwidth. They are manufactured by coating first with a reflective metal film and then with a dielectric overcoat for protection and enhancement of the reflectivity.
Coatings offered include aluminum, silver and gold. Each has a different spectral characteristic as shown in the curves. Aluminum provides a good general purpose visible range mirror. Silver has a very high reflectance over the visible and near infra-red range and gold is the preferred coating for infra-red applications at wavelengths greater than 2 microns.
We use only highly polished laser grade substrates with /10 surfaces and low scatter. Unlike dielectric coatings, these mirrors can be used over a wide range of angles of incidence. However, they do affect the state of polarization of the reflected beam.
