Standard fs laser optics
Standard Femtosecond Laser Optics (Bandwidth ∼120 nm)
- The coatings shown here are calculated for a bandwidth of 120 – 150 nm in the wavelength range between 600 nm and 1000 nm.
- Very high reflectivity of the mirrors (R > 99.9 ... 99.97 %)
- Spectral tolerance 1% of centre wavelength
- LIDT = 0.1 ... 0.3 J/cm2 depending on the coating design
- In-house design calculation and GDD measurement capabilities
- Centre wavelength, GDD and TOD according to customer specification

Figure 5: Reflectance (a) and GDD (b) spectra of several standard output couplers (the GDD spectra are calculated for R = 98%, but they are similar for all degrees of reflectivity) Figure 6: Reflectance (a) and GDD (b) spectra of several standard beam splitters for AOI = 45° and p - polarized light (the GDD spectra are calculated for R = 50%, but they are similar for all degrees of reflectivity) - Beam splitters for s - polarization are available as well
- Reflectance and transmittance of output couplers and beam splitters can be adjusted according to customer specifications
