Figure 3-10: Plots showing the performance of two similar candidates for the primary and<br />

secondary telescope mirrors. The left panels show the phase difference, relative reflected<br />

amplitude and reflectivity for Ag+SiO 2 (124 nm) design by Balasubramanian et al. The right<br />

panels show similar performance by Bowers of the design of Hass et al. (1973) incorporating<br />

Ag+Al 2 O 3 (30 nm)+SiOx (100 nm). Both designs have very similar performance with low<br />

polarization over the full bandpass and high reflectivity.<br />
