Where to Buy Supermirrors
Supermirrors are mirrors with extremely high reflectivity – in some cases, more than 99.9999%. They allow one to realize optical resonators with extremely high Q factor. They are used in quantum optics, for example.

 Your sidekick for laser optics development Ukmerges g. 427 14185 Vilnius Lithuania ISO 9001:2015 |  OPTOMAN's extremely low-loss mirrors have a maximum reflectivity of R > 99.998% and total losses (absorption, scatter, and transmission) below 2 ppm at a discrete wavelength and angle of incidence. Coatings are applied on high purity fused silica substrates (plane, spherical or wedged) super-polished to an RMS roughness of <2 Å. Mirrors are available with a CRD measurement that prove reflectivity and loss values. |

UltraFast Innovations (UFI) offers supermirrors with a reflectivity exceeding 99.99%. Our magnetron sputtering facility offers the best technology for ultra-high reflection mirrors due to the extremely dense layers. More than 99.997% reflection over a bandwidth of 200 nm or more is achievable. Characterization of these mirrors is performed in a cavity ring-down measurement device with ppm-level precision. See us at Ultrafast Phenomena 2024 in Barcelona, Spain, July 14–19! |
 43 Sparta Avenue Newton, NJ 07860 United States |  Thorlabs manufactures high-performance, single-crystal supermirror coatings on Ø1" substrates for applications requiring the highest reflectance possible at a specific wavelength. These high-performance supermirrors with ultralow optical absorption and minimal Brownian noise are key ingredients for the construction of optical atomic clocks, optical reference cavities, and stabilized lasers, as well as the next generation of gravitational wave detectors. See us at CLEO 2024 in Charlotte, North Carolina, United States, May 7–9 (booth 427)! |
 Home of high power optics and coatings Horster Str. 20 30826 Garbsen Germany ISO 9001:2015 |  So-called supermirrors for ring laser gyroscope assemblies or certain scientific applications require coated optics with extremely low losses (i.e. absorption and scattering). These mirrors also have a maximum reflectivity with R > 99.998% and total losses < 10 ppm. LASEROPTIK uses a modified IBS machine that is capable to produce coatings on superpolished substrates. The cleanliness of the machine and environment is maintained in a dedicated super-clean room, where also the extensive substrate pre- and after-treatment takes place. Measurement devices such as white light profilometers and high resolution microscopes (up to × 1000) for the inspection procedures are in place. A custom built cavity ring-down setup allows to determine the reflection with a precision of up to four decimal places and to refer back to the losses. |
