Heat-Transmitting Mirror

Radiant energy incident upon a glass plate can be divided into transmitted and reflected bands by the interference effect in thin films of dielectrics deposited on the glass. The mirror described here reflects over 95% of incident visible light and transmits a large part of the energy beyond 7000 A. Such mirrors have been produced and typical transmission characteristics are shown. Several arrangements for use of such a mirror with a carbon arc are also shown.
