Abstract
The optical design process includes a myriad of tasks that the designer must be performed and consider in the process of optimizing the performance of the optical system. In this article, a design based on four groups of materials for a multilayer dielectric cold mirror: V2O5 \MgF2, Sic\MgF2, TiO2\MgF2, and Al As\MgF2 where MgF2 represents low refractive index and other material in each group represent high refractive index. A cold mirrors are a special dielectric mirrors that reflects the entire visible wavelength band, while the transmitting infrared wavelength band. These systems of mirrors are constructed for an event angle from 0° to 45° and are modeled with interference filters-like multi thin layer dielectric coatings. The results of our work designed shows the mirror based on Al As/MgF2 is the most promising design for cold mirror with the highest reflection in the visible region and the highest Transition in the IR region. In the spectrum range of 400-800 nanometers, the average transmission is much less than 1 %, while the average transmission is 95 percent in the wave band 800-2500 nanometer.
