Buying Dielectric Coatings

dielectric coatings

Top-level product category: optical components and devices

More specific product categories: anti-reflection coatings

Related product categories: dielectric mirrors, thin-film production equipment

Dielectric coatings, also known as thin-film coatings or interference coatings, consist of thin (typically sub-micron) layers of transparent dielectric materials deposited on a substrate. They are used for anti-reflection coatings, dielectric mirrors, polarizers, and various other purposes. Fabrication methods include electron beam evaporation, ion-assisted deposition, and plasma reactive sputtering.

dielectric coatings

Perkins Precision Developments (PPD) specializes in manufacturing custom IBS coatings for a wide range of optical components including laser mirrors, beam splitters, and polarizers. These coatings are suitable for wavelengths from 350 nm to 3 μm and utilize Ion Beam Sputtering coating technology, which is optimal for high power lasers like Nd:YAG and fiber lasers, and applications requiring minimal losses due to absorption or scatter. The IBS thin films feature densely packed micro-structures that enhance stability and ease of cleaning, while also being resistant to environmental changes such as heat, humidity, and pressure. The coatings can achieve damage thresholds exceeding 20 J/cm2, and in some cases, up to 60 J/cm2 at 1064 nm.

Common coating types offered include:

  • High power high reflectors (HR)
  • Multi wavelength reflectors
  • Low-loss anti-reflection (AR)
  • Dual-band anti-reflection (DBAR)
  • Dichroic and trichroic beam splitters
  • Output couplers
  • Low phase shift mirrors
  • Dispersion controlled mirrors
  • Laser-line Polarizers
