Custom Fused Silica Mirrors for High-Power Laser Applications
Avantier’s fused silica mirrors are engineered for demanding laser system applications, offering exceptional performance in terms of surface quality, thermal stability, and damage threshold. Designed for use with YAG lasers and other high-power systems, our silica mirrors are optimized for precision and durability.

Substrate Material
Our optic mirrors are manufactured from Corning 7980 fused silica or equivalent high-purity, industrial-grade fused silica substrates. These materials are chosen for their ultra-low thermal expansion, high laser damage threshold, and excellent resistance to environmental stress. We also offer UV fused silica mirrors for enhanced transmission and reflectivity in ultraviolet wavelength ranges.
