Laser mirrors expanded with high energy family

Edmund Optics has expanded its laser mirror line with the introduction of the Tech Spec High Energy Excimer Laser Mirror family.

Edmund Optics has expanded its laser mirror line with the introduction of the Tech Spec High Energy Excimer Laser Mirror family.

These mirrors are designed to minimize scatter from high power UV lasers, including Krypton-Fluoride (248 nm), Xenon-Chloride (308 nm) and Xenon-Fluoride (351 nm) lasers.

"This line of mirrors broadens the choices of optics available to excimer laser users," says Gregg Fales at Edmund Optics.

"We're proud to offer our customers these mirrors with the same quality as the rest of our Tech Spec products." The mirrors offer very low loss and high damage thresholds, as well as excellent thermal stability and low wavefront distortion.

All mirrors are designed for a 45 angle of incidence and feature very low polarization dependence.

Additional mirrors are available for XeFl lasers operating even farther into the UV at 193nm, and for beams that arrive at the mirror at a 0 angle of incidence.

The mirrors, based on thin-film dielectric coatings on fused-silica substrates, offer 10-5 surface quality, and are available in diameters of 12.5 mm and 25 mm.

The mirrors are damage tested using 10-ns-long excimer laser pulses at the Specified wavelengths.
