Optical Mirrors
Optical Mirror Fabrication Sydor Optics fabricates an array of metallic and dielectric optical mirrors to meet your custom specifications and requirements. Optical mirrors basically consist of a polished substrate with a metallic coating or dielectric coating on the front surface, but different applications require different levels of precision optical mirrors. That’s why Sydor Optics offers […]

Witness Samples
Custom Witness Sample Fabrication Best practices suggest that when coating or setting up an optical component, it’s best to use a witness sample, also called a “test piece,” to ensure that the actual part will match your specific coating specifications and your application. Sydor Optics also offers witness samples for the measurement of coating stresses […]
