The substrates of Zero phase
reflectors are usually Silicon or OFHC Copper. In most laser
machines, one or several Zero-Phase Reflectors are used to forward
the laser beam from the cavity to the working head. At these
mirrors, reflectance should be as high as possible in order to
minimize loss of laser power. In addition, phase shift between the
s- and p-polarized components of the reflected beam should be as
low as possible in order to avoid disturbing the polarization of
the laser beam.
TMS-DBEMR Dual-Band Max Reflector
for Co2 + RED laser diode reflectance.
These turning mirrors are used in Co2 laser beam delivery systems.
Silicon is the most commonly used mirror substrate due to its good
"figure of merit" properties. We offer them with a variety of metal
and dielectric coatings.
