This is a high-quality plane mirror, sourced from Knight Optical, designed for use in applications that require a stable, reliable, and precise reflective surface. The mirror measures 10 x 10 mm in width and length, with a thickness of 3 mm, making it suitable for use in compact optical systems.
The mirror is made from soda lime glass, which is known for its excellent optical properties and durability. The glass has been polished to a high standard, ensuring a smooth, clear surface that is free from defects. The mirror's coating is enhanced aluminium, designed to provide high reflectivity in the visible spectrum, specifically between 450-650 nm. This makes it ideal for use in applications such as laser systems, interferometry, and other precision optical measurements.
The mirror's coating is applied to the front surface only, and it has a 1λ over 25mm surface quality, which is a measure of the mirror's flatness. This level of surface quality is typically sufficient for most optical applications, ensuring that the reflected light is not distorted.
The mirror is classified as a thin lens, which means that it has a small thickness relative to its diameter. This can be advantageous in certain optical systems, as it reduces the risk of optical aberrations caused by the lens's thickness.
