Customized coating types for non spherical reflectors

According to customer needs, we can provide various customized reflective film solutions, as follows:

Metal film reflector

Aluminum plating on customized surfaces of non spherical reflectors（Al）Silver（Ag）, Gold（Au）The product produced by the process of using a metal reflective layer is a metal coated mirror. The reflectivity of this type of customized reflective film mirror is approximately96%Other agreements4%The light will be absorbed by the coating, so under strong light irradiation, the irregular reflector is prone to temperature rise. The advantage of metal coated mirrors lies in their high cost-effectiveness and wide reflection band, making them suitable for equipment such as spectrometers and telescopes. The applicable scenarios of different metal coatings vary: aluminum coatings have high reflectivity to ultraviolet light; Silver plating has extremely low light absorption in the visible and near-infrared light bands, making it suitable for cost sensitive systems; The chemical stability of the gold coating is excellent, and the corresponding reflector is more suitable for the near-infrared light band. Considering the relatively weak mechanical strength and chemical corrosion resistance of metal coatings, it is recommended to add an additional layer of dielectric protective film to enhance their durability.

Dielectric film reflector

If a higher reflectivity irregular reflector is required, a coating scheme using dielectric materials can be chosen. The maximum light reflectivity of medium coated mirrors can reach99.9%And compared to metal coated mirrors, its heating amplitude is lower. In addition, dielectric coating can achieve precise control of transmission wavelength. This type of medium coated reflector can adapt to various incident angles, with low coating stress and strong stability, especially suitable for high laser power application scenarios.

Filter film coating

When optical components need to achieve high transmittance (such as reducing reflection losses in the direction of optical system beam transmission), anti reflective coating is a complementary process. There are various types of anti reflective coatings, including single-layer coatings, multi-layer coatings, and low reflection optical coatings. Among them, low reflection optical coatings are particularly suitable for laser related applications. It is worth mentioning that,VType coating is widely used in laser equipment, which can effectively protect optical components from laser damage.

What are the application fields of optical reflectors?

Customized mirrors and various optical components with customized reflective films are widely used in multiple industries and scenarios. In a broad sense, these customized mirrors play an important role in the field of photonics. Optical mirrors can provide solutions for imaging and illumination, as well as support related research and development work.

Due to the ability of optical mirrors to alter the propagation path of light beams in optical systems, free-form surface mirrors occupy a significant position in the field of laser applications, thereby promoting the development of medical technology, space exploration, and material processing. It can be said that without such free-form surface mirrors, sensor technology and the semiconductor industry would not be able to function properly.
