Tim's vendor summary | As of Jan 31 2020 (Note Layertec quote came in after this) | |
Materion response | ROM proposal: Materion ROM proposal for KPF spectrometer optics.pdf Jan 22 2020 prelim spectrum, ave 99.1%: |

Layertec response | Quote: Curve: | NOTE! Looking at this again I was reminded Item 70 in the quote is for a test run. However, it is for coating only - substrates and the testing afterwards not included. Contacts: Stefan Götz <info@layertec.de> (Will also separately send email train) |
Inifinite: higher reflectivity exercise | Curve: Infinite Coating Models 8dec2017 - q2017-530-KPF-rev A design models.xlsx Cost: I can't find the quote in my inbox. In a slide deck I said this improved coating would be '$11.5k more' | From Géza at Infinite: "Hi Tim, here’s the revised design for the mirror. Its 48 layers versus the first version which was 21 layers." Note from Tim when he sent this to me: Hi Steve – Here is the coating data from Infinite. The data and summary tabs show the data for the improved, expensive broadband reflective coating. There’s also a tab that has the old version of that coating too. -Tim |
Infinite: PDR | ROM quote: | Emailed to us from Tim on October 27th, 2017. Note this also included transmissive optics. See excel file one line above for what I think is the the coating they were quoting to here. |
