UV & IR OPTICS
Lenses, windows, mirrors and other optical components made of special materials transmitting light in much wider range than VIS (from ultraviolet up to far infrared).
Sapphire optical components
OFFER > OPTOELECTRONICS > OPTICS > UV & IR OPTICSMoreSapphire (Al2O3) is the hardest material among oxide crystals, perfectly transparent and chemically inert. Sapphire windows can be much thinner than other glasses or crystals keeping the same physical properties.
ZnSe optical components
OFFER > OPTOELECTRONICS > OPTICS > UV & IR OPTICSMoreZinc selenide (ZnSe) is the most popular material for infrared applications. Very wide transmission range covering 0.6 - 22 µm and high quality material grown by CVD technique (Chemical Vapor Deposition) make ZnSe a good material for manufacturing optical components (windows, mirrors, lenses) for high power IR lasers.
MgF2 optical components
OFFER > OPTOELECTRONICS > OPTICS > UV & IR OPTICSMoreMagnesium fluoride is a proven material for high energy lasers, and particularly for lasers operating in the UV range. All optical elements are manufactured with the working surface perpendicular to the c-axis MgF2 crystal.
CaF2 optical components
OFFER > OPTOELECTRONICS > OPTICS > UV & IR OPTICSMoreCalcium fluoride has useful transmission over the spectral range from 0.2 to 8.0 microns. Windows made of this material are popular choice for specroscopic and thermal imaging applications. They have also have high damage threshold.
