Nataraj, To get a good reflective layer of Aluminium, I would check the following parameters: Good vacuum in the chamber, substrate quality & the layer on the substrate, the rate of deposition and if required backside heating of the substrate depending on the thickness of the layer to be deposited. May be you should give some more information on your process and the substrate which you use to solve the problem.
