BBD1-E02 1in Dia. Broadband Dielectric D-Shaped Mirror

The BBD1-E02 is a 1-inch diameter broadband dielectric D-shaped mirror, available from Thorlabs. This mirror is designed for use in optical systems, offering high reflectivity across a wide range of wavelengths.

The mirror features a D-shaped geometry, which combines the benefits of a flat mirror and a curved mirror. The flat side of the mirror provides a broad, clear aperture for high-efficiency reflection, while the curved side helps to control stray light and minimize optical aberrations. The mirror has a diameter of 25.4 millimeters and a thickness of 6 millimeters, making it suitable for use in a variety of optical setups.

The mirror's coating is another key feature. The front surface of the mirror is coated with Thorlabs' E02UVDR40075045 coating, which provides high reflectivity across a broad spectrum, from 400 to 750 nanometers. This makes the mirror ideal for use in systems that operate across a wide range of wavelengths, such as broadband laser systems or spectroscopy applications.

The mirror is made from UVFS material, identified as MAL-1965 in the item data. This material is known for its excellent optical properties, making it a popular choice for optical components.
