7/25/2017, Barrington, NJ USA   —

Edmund Optics® (EO), the premier provider of optical components, introduces its new TECHSPEC® Precision Ultraviolet Mirrors. They are offered in both Deep UV (DUV) and new Vacuum UV (VUV) enhanced coating options. TECHSPEC® Precision Ultraviolet Mirrors are ideally suited for a wide variety of commercially available light sources. They can be used in a number of optical setups to reflect UV light, including fluorescence microscopy and spectrometry.

Greater than 78% Reflectance at Specified Design Wavelength

TECHSPEC® Precision Ultraviolet Mirrors with a DUV coating offer excellent reflection from 190nm to the long wave infrared (LWIR) and new VUV coated mirrors provide optimized reflection from 120nm to the LWIR. Designed for 0° angle of incidence, TECHSPEC® Precision Ultraviolet Mirrors exhibit greater than 78% reflectivity at their specified design wavelength. The mirrors are manufactured from a fused silica substrate and feature aluminum-based coatings for low polarization sensitivity. λ/10 surface flatness and 10-5 surface quality provide for maximum precision. Six models are available in 12.5mm, 25mm and 50mm diameters, with a choice of DUV enhanced aluminum or new VUV enhanced aluminum coatings. TECHSPEC® Precision Ultraviolet Mirrors are in-stock and available for immediate delivery.
