The CM127-050-P01 is a concave mirror offered by Thorlabs, a leading vendor in the optical components industry. This mirror, with a base shape of a circle, has a diameter of 12.7 millimeters and a thickness that varies from 3.2 millimeters at the edge to 3 millimeters at the center.
The mirror's geometry is characterized by a focal length (EFL) of 50 millimeters and a radius of curvature (R1) of -100 millimeters, indicating a strongly curved surface. This curvature allows the mirror to focus light to a point, making it suitable for various applications in optical systems.
The mirror is made of N-BK7 Schott, a popular optical glass known for its excellent optical properties and high damage threshold. It is coated with a protected silver coating (tho p01protsilrefl12) on the front surface, which provides high reflectivity across a broad spectrum, typically 400-700 nanometers, including the visible range.
This mirror is designed to operate at a wavelength of 588 nanometers, making it suitable for applications that require high reflectivity at this specific wavelength. The mirror's spherical shape ensures consistent curvature across the entire surface, contributing to its high-performance optical properties.
