Coatings for Metal Optics
 
           
 
 

Mirror surface coatings are required to increase both the surface reflectivity properties as well as act as a mechanical protection layer.

LT ULTRA offers several types of functional surface coatings to meet a variety of demands whether for beam polarizing, boosting material’s natural reflectivity, or acting solely as a protection layer against mechanical damage from cleaning and polishing tasks.

These coatings, particularly for the CO2 wavelength, can only be produced using complicated technical procedures. LT ULTRA partners with coating companies both nationally and internationally to coat its metal optic components to the highest level.
