Collimating Optics for CO2 Laser and IR Optics Systems
Reflective and transmissive collimating optics are used in beam delivery systems to maintain beam collimation between the laser resonator and the focusing optics. Reflective collimators typically use Cu total reflectors, while transmissive collimators typically use ZnSe lenses.
Mirrors or total reflectors are used in laser cavities as rear reflectors and fold mirrors, and externally as beam benders in beam delivery systems.
Silicon is the most commonly used mirror substrate; its advantages are low cost, good durability, and thermal stability.
Copper is typically used in high-power applications for its high-thermal conductivity.
Molybdenum’s extremely tough surface makes it ideal for the most demanding physical environments. Molybdenum is normally offered uncoated.
