Hot and Cold Mirrors are essential optical components designed to manage light and heat in various applications. These mirrors are crafted with precision to either reflect or transmit specific wavelengths, making them invaluable in environments where temperature control and light management are critical. The use of high-quality Borosilicate type glass ensures that these mirrors can withstand high temperatures, enhancing their durability and performance.

Hot Mirrors are specifically engineered to separate visible light from heat by reflecting infrared radiation. This capability is particularly useful in applications where it is necessary to maintain a cool environment while still allowing visible light to pass through. The preferred angle of incidence (AOI) for optimal performance is 0º. Hot mirrors typically offer an average transmission of 85% within the 420-700nm wavelength range, while reflecting over 95% of infrared light in the 800-1000nm range.

Cold Mirrors, on the other hand, are designed to reflect visible light while allowing heat to pass through via transmission. This makes them ideal for applications where it is crucial to remove heat while maintaining high visibility. The optimal AOI for cold mirrors is 45º. They provide an average transmission of over 85% for wavelengths between 800-1200nm and reflect more than 95% of visible light in the 400-700nm range.

Both hot and cold mirrors are available in various sizes and configurations, with custom options available to meet specific requirements. Their dielectric multilayer coatings and precise manufacturing ensure high performance and reliability. Whether you need to manage heat or light, these mirrors offer a robust solution tailored to your needs.
