The AL-W-16x0.75 is a flat window type optical element, sourced from the reputable vendor Alkor Technologies. This component is a circular window with a diameter of 16 millimeters and a thickness of 0.75 millimeters, making it a thin and lightweight option for various optical applications.
The material of this window is sapphire, specifically identified as al2o3 mal-1972-n-o in the material database. Sapphire is a highly desirable material in optical applications due to its excellent properties, such as its high transparency, hardness, and resistance to scratching and environmental damage.
The window is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers applied to its surface. This can be beneficial in certain applications where the natural properties of sapphire are desired, or where additional coatings may interfere with the optical path.
The window is designed to operate at a wavelength of 633 nanometers, making it suitable for a wide range of applications in the visible light spectrum. The window's shape is that of a thin lens, which can provide beneficial optical properties in certain applications.
