We are now able to offer near IR coatings using our new sputter coating process. This allows us to produce extremely precise, compact layers with a very low wavelength drift. This process along with our on-line monitoring system produces repeatable coatings with complex layer designs, resulting in the lowest scatter loss and a high reflection of >99.99%, whilst achieving very high laser damage thresholds. The sputtering process is a ‘cold’ method which makes it suitable for temperature and moisture sensitive substrates.
Our experience combined with our coating processes allows us to produce UV coatings with very good performance and high damage thresholds. For specialist requirements we are able to offer special substrates to work with particular lasers such as a fused silica designed for excimer grade lasers, thus helping to maximise the efficiency of the coating.
