Mirrors and Optics

Trex Enterprises' CVC SiC™ material, fabricated using Trex's patented chemical vapor composite process, is the most thermally stable mirror material available with a specific stiffness that approaches beryllium (Be).

Exceptional Optical Performance

• Typical surface figure: 35^th wave P-V
• Typical surface roughness: <5 Å rms
