Description
Custom Fused Silica High-Reflection Flat & Concave Optical Mirrors (Aluminum / Gold Coating)
Felix Glass manufactures custom precision reflective Fused Silica Optical Mirror based on high-purity UV fused silica substrate. Available in two mainstream structures: plano flat mirrors for beam steering and spherical concave mirrors for light focusing. Metallic aluminum coating and infrared gold coating are optional to match UV, visible and infrared optical requirements.
Fused silica quartz glass features ultra-low thermal expansion coefficient, excellent thermal stability and superior broadband transmittance. Compared with ordinary optical glass, it maintains stable surface flatness and reflective performance under high-power laser irradiation and long-term continuous industrial operation.
Core Coating Performance
1. Protected Aluminum Coating
Provides high broadband reflectivity across UV, visible and near-infrared spectrum (200 nm – 2 μm). Widely adopted for general beam folding, laboratory optical platforms, machine vision and laser transmission systems. The protective dielectric layer prevents oxidation and improves mechanical durability.
2. Protected Gold Coating
Delivers extremely high reflectivity in mid-to-far infrared range (1.5 μm – 10 μm). Ideal for infrared thermal imaging, FTIR spectroscopy, infrared detection and CO₂ laser optical systems. Gold coating minimizes infrared light absorption and ensures low-loss optical transmission.
Product Structure Features
Flat Plano Mirror
Maintains precise planar surface accuracy, mainly used for optical path folding, beam direction adjustment and optical system assembly without changing beam convergence state.
Spherical Concave Mirror
Features inward curved spherical surface, achieving effective light collection and beam focusing. Corrects light path without introducing chromatic aberration, suitable for focusing optics and infrared signal gathering systems.
Key Technical Advantages

These Positive Meniscus Lenses are fabricated from ROHS-compliant BK7 glass (N-BK7) and are avalable uncoated or with one of our three broadband antireflection coatings: -A (350-700 nm),-B (650-1050 nm), or -C (1050-1700 nm). These coatings greatlyreduce the 4% loss per surface incurred when using an uncoated lens. Positive meniscus (convex-concave) lenses are designed to minimize spherical aberration, When used in combination with another lens, a positive meniscus lens will shorten the focal length and increase the numerical aperture (NA) of the system without introducing significant spherical aberration, When used to focus a colimated beam, the convex side of the lens should face thesource to minimze spherical aberration.

Q2: What kind of processes can achieve the “dead front effect” of cover glass?
Answer:
A: ①Printing, suitable for small area printing within 20*20mm.
②Electroplating, suitable for small sizes below 7 inches
③The glass material is gray glass, and the maximum size can be 32 inches.
④Film Adhesion, unlimited size
Q3: What is the stress standard after glass chemical strengthening?
A: Corning Gorilla Glass Stress Value: DOL>40um, CS>650Mpa
Soda Lime Glass Stress Value: DOL>8um, CS>450Mpa
Q4: What is the Dead Front Glass?
A: This question has written a lot of introduction, You can search on the FELIX GLASS website and you will find related videos, introductions, and pictures.
“Dead Fronteffect”(All-in-one-black), that is to say, the display is clearly visible when back-lit, and when non-backlit, the entire display including glass is completely black without a color difference. Dead front glass is widely used in smart homes, smart wearables, financials, medicals, and industrial control, etc.
Q5: Will the glass strength be affected after AG etching?
A: Definitely not. Because the etched glass surface is only about 0.05mm depth, and the chemical strengthening is immersion type, which can fully complete the replacement of ions. We have done too many time tests and the results showed that it didn’t affect the strength of the glass.
Q6: For AF(Anti-Fingerprint) coating, how much is the qualified water contact angle?
A: FELIX GLASS Standard Water Contact Angle is >105°, Abrasion Test: 200g weight,Steel Wool#0000, 2000times(back and forth as 1 time),Recession Value within 15%
Q7: How to recognize the etched side?
A: The easiest way is to hold the AG glass under a fluorescent light and look at the tube reflected on the glass from the front. If the light is scattered on the glass, it is etched side. If the light is clearly visible, it is a non-ag side. This is the most direct way to distinguish from the visual effect.
