High reflectivity gold plating
Successfully conducted experiments aboard the NASA Space Shuttle!
Among glossy metals, silver plating is considered to have good reflection across a wide range of wavelengths. However, silver plating tarnishes quickly in the air. To solve this problem, Mitsuya developed high-reflective gold plating. Compared to our conventional gold plating, the reflectivity has improved by 4-6%. High-reflective gold plating is widely used in various applications, such as: - Marking on wafers during semiconductor manufacturing processes - Pulse laser welding - Laser cutting machines Astronaut Koichi Wakata conducted experiments to create alloys using an imaging furnace installed on NASA's Space Shuttle. The reflective mirror of this imaging furnace uses the high-reflective gold plating developed by Mitsuya. This mirror is the most critical component for the imaging furnace.
