The 43-432 is a 6-inch diameter, UVFS (Ultra-Violet Fused Silica) dual surface flat window, with a thickness of 1 inch and a 587.6 nm wavelength. Sourced from Edmund Optics, this window is designed for use in various optical systems, offering excellent transmissivity and durability.
The window's dual surface flat design ensures minimal distortion, making it ideal for applications that require high-precision imaging. Its 6-inch diameter provides a generous aperture, allowing for a wide field of view. The UVFS material, known for its low coefficient of thermal expansion and high transmission across a broad spectrum, makes this window suitable for use in both ultraviolet and visible light applications.
The window's thickness of 1 inch provides structural rigidity, reducing the risk of deformation under load. Despite its thickness, the window remains lightweight, making it easy to handle and integrate into various optical setups.
Notably, this window is uncoated, meaning it does not have any anti-reflective or other surface coatings. While this may result in higher reflectivity at the air-glass interfaces, it also ensures the window's surface remains chemically inert and highly resistant to environmental factors.
