The ZnSe-W-38.1-6 is a flat window type optical element, sourced from Alkor Technologies, with a circular base shape and a diameter of 38.1 mm. This window is designed to be thin, with a thickness of 6 mm, making it suitable for applications where minimal added weight and volume are crucial.
The material used in this window is ZnSe, which is known for its excellent transmission properties in the near and mid-infrared regions, making it ideal for use in applications such as optical fiber communication, medical imaging, and various military and industrial applications. The specific material ID for this ZnSe is 'znse marple-1964'.
The ZnSe-W-38.1-6 is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers applied to its surface to alter its optical properties. This can be advantageous in certain applications where the natural properties of the material are desired, or where the addition of a coating could introduce unwanted complexity or cost.
