Hot Mirrors Hot Mirrors (standard and extended range versions)reflect IR light so that it does not transmit through the optical system. Hot mirrors are useful in eliminating thermal heat that would otherwise damage optical components. Only visible light transmits through the hot mirror (below 400nm, little UV light is transmitted). Hot mirrors are available in both 0° and 45° angle of incidence (AI) versions and fit into Sciencetech's FH filter box holder (sold separately).
Absorption in Visible Spectrum Although the purpose of a Hot Mirror is to eliminate IR light, it unfortunately also eliminates some visible light. The amount of visible light it eliminates depends on the mounting angle of the hot mirror to the incident light. If the hot mirror is mounted perpendicular to the incident light (defined as 0°), its transmission efficiency in the visible spectrum is approximately 90%. If it is mounted 45° to the incident light, there is a dip in transmission efficiency to 60% between 400-480 nm (centering around 430 nm). Otherwise, it is about 95% efficient from 480nm to 630nm of the visible spectrum. Please note that there are different models of hot mirror according to the incident angle it is mounted.
