Where to Buy Metal-coated Mirrors

VisiMax process reflective coatings & mirror coatings include the application of metal coatings such as aluminum, silver, and chromium, apart from non-conductive dielectric reflective coatings.

Metal mirrors are available both as first and second surface mirrors. For many applications, the reflectivity of the metal can be further enhanced by adding dielectric overcoat layers; these hybrid coatings are known as enhanced metal mirrors. For applications requiring additional hardness or oxidation stability, protected metal mirrors can be made, which are overcoated with a single dielectric layer.

Ecoptik offers metal-coated mirrors for various applications, in particular based on aluminum and gold. There is a wide choice of round, elliptical or custom shapes as well as flat, spherical, cylindrical and parabolic surfaces.

EKSMA Optics offers a wide selection of various sizes of round, rectangular, spherical mirrors with protected gold, silver or aluminium coatings. Most of our metal-coated mirrors are available for quick delivery.

Metal-coated mirrors have many key features, including wide spectral range, low cost, non-sensitivity to the incidence angle and polarization state, relatively low scattering and low laser damage threshold.

Shalom EO offers a variety of metal-coated mirrors: BK7 metal-coated mirrors and UVFS metallic coated mirrors, with coating options like enhanced Al coating, protective Ag coating or protective Au coating and flatness options of λ/10 or λ/4. Both off-the-shelf and custom metal mirrors are offered.

UltraFast Innovations (UFI) offers a range of metal-coated mirrors, including so-called hybrid or enhanced metal coatings with additional dielectric layers for higher reflectance and protecting the metal against oxidation.

LASEROPTIK offers standard mirror metal coatings such as aluminium, gold or silver, normally with protection layer or even enhanced, i.e. with an additional dielectric coating system.

Shanghai Optics provides custom metallic coatings which provide high reflection in some wavelength range, and are widely used in laser system and other optical elements. Our metallic coatings provide more effective and efficient spectral performance due to the low absorption properties. These mirror coatings can also be further customized to provide additional high pass or low pass wavelength performance in addition to the specified reflection band.
