Compared to metal mirrors, dielectric interference mirrors are spectrally less wide and their reflection is angle-dependent. However, they can achieve reflection values in the visible range of more than 99.9% at a vertical angle of incidence.
This is possible because optically high-quality, low-loss interference layer systems are manufactured from pure, absorption-free materials using state-of-the-art coating technology under clean room conditions.
