The PLW-DEG0.5-UVFS-12.7-5.0-GTI7-1 from OPTOMAN is a 1030 nm GTI dispersive mirror engineered for ultrafast Yb laser systems that require both high reflectivity and negative group delay dispersion (GDD) in a compact mirror format. Built on a 12.7 mm wedged UV fused silica substrate with 5.0 mm thickness, this optic is designed for operation at 0–10° angle of incidence and provides reflectivity above 99.8% from 1010 to 1050 nm for both s and p polarizations. Its coating design also delivers average GDD of -400 fs² ±100 fs² across 1025–1055 nm, making it well suited for pulse compression and intracavity dispersion management in femtosecond and picosecond laser platforms.

This optic is based on the Gires–Tournois interferometer (GTI) principle, where carefully engineered interference within the coating stack introduces controlled chromatic dispersion while maintaining very high reflectance. That makes it a strong candidate for laser architectures where passive dispersion compensation is needed without adding the alignment complexity of prism or grating compressors. The wedged geometry helps reduce unwanted parasitic reflections and etalon effects, while the IBS dielectric coating supports long-term spectral stability, low scatter, and high durability in demanding ultrafast beam paths.

With its combination of 1030 nm optimization, negative GDD, high-reflectivity IBS coating, and wedged UV fused silica construction, the PLW-DEG0.5-UVFS-12.7-5.0-GTI7-1 is well suited for OEM laser integration, laboratory pulse-management setups, and ultrafast laser systems that require reliable dispersion control around the Yb fundamental wavelength.
