The 38-844 is a dielectric mirror designed for use with Yb:YAG lasers, offering a 19.1mm diameter and a thickness of 6.35mm. This mirror is sourced from Edmund Optics, a reputable vendor in the optical industry, and is currently in stock with a valid weblink provided for easy access to additional information.
The mirror's primary function is to reflect light at a specific wavelength, in this case, 343nm, while maintaining a 45° angle of incidence. This is achieved through the application of a specialized coating, denoted as "edm dcurv3884445aoi" on the front surface. The dielectric nature of the coating ensures high reflectivity and durability, making it suitable for demanding laser applications.
The mirror's geometry is defined by its circular shape and thin lens design. This configuration allows for easy integration into various optical systems, providing flexibility in system design. The mirror is made from fused silica, identified as "fused sil mal-1965" in the item data, which is known for its excellent optical properties and resistance to thermal shock.
