Buying Mirror Substrates
Mirror substrates, used in the production of dielectric and metal-coated mirrors, can be made from materials like BK7 glass, quartz glass (fused silica), sapphire, and Zerodur. Important properties include surface quality, optical transmission quality, thermal conductivity, and thermal expansion coefficients.
