Abstract

See full text

A reflector or mirror for the visible and rear infrared spectrum is formed by multicoating copper with one-fifth wavelength and three-quarter wavelength films. These films are alternating low and high index films, and MgF.sub.2 and TiO.sub.2 are presently preferred. A thin bonding layer of TiO.sub.2 is used to secure adhesion of the MgF.sub.2 to the copper. This coating enhances the reflectance in the visible range without appreciable degradation of reflectance in the near infrared, so that the resultant curve of reflectance-versus-frequency is substantially flat. The resulting coating is hard and tough and may be cleaned without injury and withstands high humidity.
