Optical mirrors are used for beam turning, interferometry, imaging, or illumination. Using polished glass or metal as the substrate, a beam of light is directed onto the surface to form a mirror reflection.
In order to obtain as much reflected light as possible, a reflective film, including a metal film and a dielectric film, is often coated on the substrate. The commonly used materials for metal film include aluminum, silver, and gold.
Generally speaking, metal film mirrors can already meet the requirements of optical instruments. If higher reflectivity is required, multi-layer dielectric reflective films can be used, which can improve reflectivity and reduce absorption losses.
