λ/8 Eighth Wave First Surface Mirror
The production of a high-quality optical component is an exacting process, requiring a high level of skill, quality equipment, and close attention to detail. Our λ/8 wave first surface mirror glass offers a superior quality compared to other first surface mirrors on the market. The λ/8 flatness is achieved by polishing float glass down to a flat surface, then coating with aluminum and the protective overcoat. Typically, other companies are only able to produce the mirrors on float glass, which is 4-6λ per inch. To the naked eye, the two mirrors look the same, however the improved quality of the λ/8 is immediately noticeable under magnification.

    You all know this only works on surface mirrors? A two way mirror is a mirror with about 50% light transmission. So the room with more light it looks like a real mirror. If you turn your surface mirrors around it would look like a regular mirror.

  • @MrNolimitech
    @MrNolimitech 5 місяців тому

    A real mirror is a simple glass, with silver nitrate (or whatever reflective nowadays) that is on the back of the mirror. Normally, the space between your finger and the mirror, is the thickness of the glass before the silver nitrate (before the reflection) . If you see 5mm space between you finger and the mirror, it's because the glass is 5mm thick. But some hotels (or any building) use 2mm and 3mm (because of prices). It can be hard to see the space between, when it's 2mm thick The second method is (not safe): close your light, and with your flashlight (or any beam of light) you aim directly at the mirror. You might see behind. But I saw some houses with a 2way mirror and a small door with a real glass behind it. Hidden in a cupboard, face to the bathroom. They can close/open, when people is checking carefully the mirror. So you never see behind the mirror, if the door is closed. It was pretty creepy, lmao!

  • @samf8887
    @samf8887 6 місяців тому

    Some true mirrors do not leave a gap. These are usually small though because they're very expensive to make so you'll probably only see them as decorative objects. These are real, no distortion mirrors and they don't leave a gap. However, if you have a large bathroom mirror, anything really bigger than 10 inches. The best way is to use the flashlight test, not the nail gap test. Additionally, some two-way mirrors actually do leave a gap. The best thing to do is to turn off all the lights and have a flashlight or your cell phone light and hold it directly up against the glass. If it penetrates the glass, you've got a two-way mirror on your hands. Another way to do this is give the knock test and if it sounds hollow as if there's space behind it, most likely a two-way mirror. Be careful guys. They're getting better and better at making these to a mirrors to look more and more like the real deal so that nail gap test does not work all the time. Be safe!!!

    A single surface mirror would fail this test because there's no glass, or anything on the reflective surface. But they are mostly use for optics. If you shine a laser on a regular mirror, you'll get 2 dots reflected back because the light bouncing between the glass and the reflective layer behind it. But on a single surface mirror, like a very polished piece of metal, you only get one reflection back because there's nothing for the light to bounce around in. So you just get one dot reflected back.
