supermirrors
suppliers for supermirrors encyclopedia article
supermirrors from LASEROPTIK

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.
