A synthesis technique allowing to obtain a set of robust designs is reported. The robust synthesis is based on simultaneous optimization of spectral characteristics of multiple designs located in a small neighborhood of a so-called pivotal design. Efficiency of this technique is demonstrated by the synthesis and successful experimental realization of a high dispersive mirror. The fabricated dispersive mirror covers 690-890 nm wavelength range and provides the dispersion of -300 fs2 at 800 nm.
