Mid IR Low GDD mirrors

IBS-coated ultrafast low GDD Mid IR mirrors feature excellent spectral performance at optimised wavelengths, while at the same time ensuring low and spectrally uniform Group Delay Dispersion (GDD). Moreover, for more complex setups, broadband configurations can also be provided, with bandwidths spanning over 1000 nm across the Mid IR spectrum. Despite the broad range, these mirrors maintain great reflection values and spectrally uniform low GDD (below 100 fs²), ensuring consistent and controlled dispersion effects. With IBS coatings, the mirrors also offer enhanced durability and a long operational lifetime, reducing the frequency of replacements and lowering costs.  

At OPTOMAN, our experienced engineers ensure each mirror is finely tuned for your specific application, providing reliable, high-performance solutions for Mid IR laser systems. 

OPTOMAN digs deep into each application, providing highly customised and application-optimised solutions that will fit your business needs.

Together, we will be able to set the priorities that are most important for your application and needs, whether it is reaching fundamental limitations, proving the concept, or making a well-balanced industrial high runner. We keep an open discussion about main price drivers and help customers optimise BOM costs while maintaining the highest quality level.

Yes. Based on the customer’s presented business case, OPTOMAN, with its R&D-driven attitude and collaborative approach, can design, develop, and manufacture products for testing purposes and present a plan for serial production. Different-size IBS coating chambers are very handy in this case because small-scale production can be easily transferred to our giant IBS machine – Albert (the atom smasher), where we can coat large optics or 400-500 units of 1“ laser optics in a single coating run, ensuring high uniformity, meaning that all mirrors will work the same making your laser systems highly repeatable and reliable too.

Moreover, our in-stock optics marketplace, OPTOSHOP, features over 400 different laser optics made with love by OPTOMAN. These optics can be provided for testing directly from stock and delivered in 1-3 business days. After successful tests, OPTOMAN can present the most optimal production plan matching your business needs.

Both. 80% of total OPTOMAN revenue comes from complete products, while 20% is generated by providing coating services on customer-supplied substrates. OPTOMAN responsibly oversees the supplier network for reliable substrates and, if needed, can offer a completely European supply chain.  

Yes. OPTOMAN has a number of flat substrates, plano-concave and plano-convex lenses, and spherical mirror substrates in stock, ready to be coated. Choosing the in-stock substrate option allows, on average, saving 6 weeks of lead time and reducing end-product cost 3 times.
