Abstract. The chirped mirror (CM) is one of the key elements in ultrafast optics. We investigate a problem of a CM designing. The series of starting designs for broadband CM are reported. The appropriate starting design can significantly simplify a problem of design searching, and improved a performance of a final solution. The acceptable performance of CM was achieved by optimization one of the proposed starting design. The achieved design has comparable performance in comparison with the best design which was realized up to now.

Keywords: ultrafast optics, chirped mirrors.
