Single Crystal Silicon Super Low Loss Flat Concave Mirror

Single Crystal Silicon Super Low Loss Flat Concave Mirrors for Extreme-Duty Aerospace & Defense Applications

Engineered for mission-critical optical systems, our Single Crystal Silicon Super Low Loss Flat Concave Mirror delivers unmatched performance in aerospace, defense, and high-energy laser applications. Combining ultra-high purity silicon substrates with diamond-polished surfaces (<0.5 nm roughness), these mirrors minimize scattering losses while maintaining λ/10 wavefront accuracy under extreme thermal cycling (-196°C to +300°C). Whether you’re aligning LIDAR arrays or stabilizing satellite laser communication, our mirrors ensure distortion-free performance where failure isn’t an option.

Precision Engineered for Demanding Environments

• <50 ppm/cm Absorption Loss: Ideal for high-power lasers up to 10 kW/cm², minimizing heat buildup that could distort beams in directed energy systems or laser processing tools, ensuring consistent performance where excessive absorption would degrade precision in cutting or defense applications.
• CTE Stability (<2.6×10⁻⁶/K): Maintains curvature accuracy across cryogenic to high-temperature ranges, critical for aerospace laser systems and scientific research setups, resisting warping in extreme conditions from space vacuum to industrial furnaces, preserving beam alignment without calibration drifts.
• Custom Curvature (50–2000mm): Achieve λ/20 surface accuracy for tight beam alignment, tailored to semiconductor lithography and hyperspectral imaging needs, ensuring precise light focusing in EUV chambers or satellite sensors where even minor misalignment would compromise results.

Built for Aerospace Rigors

• Atomic Oxygen Resistance: Validated in simulated LEO conditions (5×10²⁰ atoms/cm² exposure), ensuring Single Crystal Silicon Super Low Loss Flat Concave Mirror retain <0.12nm Ra smoothness in low Earth orbit—critical for satellite laser terminals where atomic oxygen erosion would degrade reflectivity, preserving signal integrity in inter-satellite links.​
• Vibration-Tested: Survives 15g RMS shocks (20–2000Hz) without delamination, complementing aerospace laser systems’ sapphire durability to withstand launch vibrations and orbital disturbances, preventing coating failure that could disrupt beam control in defense or communication satellites.​
• Radiation-Hardened Coatings: Protect against proton/electron flux in GEO orbits, maintaining 99.9% reflectivity at 1550nm despite prolonged radiation exposure—vital for hyperspectral imaging arrays and LCTs, ensuring consistent performance in geostationary missions lasting 10+ years.

Parameters

Where Innovation Meets Application

• Laser Communication Terminals (LCTs): Ensure inter-satellite links with mirrors that maintain >99.9% reflectivity at 1550 nm, even after 1000+ thermal cycles, leveraging extreme thermal stability to resist temperature swings in space—critical for uninterrupted data transmission between GEO and LEO satellites where signal loss risks mission failure.
• Directed Energy Systems: Deploy mirrors with multi-layer dielectric coatings that withstand 1 J/cm² @ 1064 nm (10 ns pulses) – proven in DoE-funded testing, paired with rugged construction to endure recoil and vibration, ensuring reliable performance in defense applications where high-energy pulse resistance is non-negotiable.
• Hyperspectral Imaging Arrays: Minimize wavefront distortion (<λ/8 @ 632.8 nm) for precise spectral analysis in Earth observation satellites, using ultra-smooth surfaces to preserve image integrity, enabling accurate detection of environmental changes and resource mapping from orbit with unmatched clarity.
