Light transmitting special glass with mirror effect

The particular application dictates whether you choose beamsplitter glass with 70% light transmission and 30% reflection, or our 50% option. Every single variant of the beamsplitter glass has an optical thin-film coating on one side that reflects and transmits light waves that fall upon it at a specific ratio. Choose from monolithic glass, laminated glass or toughened/tempered glass as the core material. To prevent ghosting, it is possible to have a single-sided LUXAR anti-reflective coating on the opposite side of all our beamsplitter glass sheets.

Application

Beamsplitter glass is a popular design material for applications where a high level of light transmission is required and where a mirror effect is essential. The best-known example is the teleprompter, which reflects the text displayed by a monitor using a two-way mirror positioned in front of the camera lens. Thanks to the two-way mirror’s transparency, camera operation is not affected.
