With the SHP-D series, we developed a unique high-performance mirror coating that offers excellent broadband reflection for unpolarized and s&p-polarized light and a wide range of incidence angles. For a 100% dielectric coating, these are unusual characteristics because such kinds of optics are usually designed for only one or a narrow incidence angle range. We achieve these mirror properties with our SHP-D coating system by depositing an extraordinarily high number of thin-film coating layers. The sophisticated broadband coating design allows various applications that are not feasible with metal-based coatings like silver or aluminum mirrors. The SHP-D mirror coating is temperature resistant, so operating temperatures up to 300 °C are possible.
