The 45-462 is a 30 mm diameter, 3.3 mm thick uncoated Borofloat33 protective flat window, available from Edmund Optics. This window is designed for use as a protective barrier in optical systems, providing durability and clarity without significantly altering the path or quality of light.
Borofloat33 is a low-alkali glass with excellent transmittance across a wide spectrum, making it suitable for use in a variety of applications. It has a high Abbe number, indicating low dispersion, which can be beneficial in systems where chromatic aberration is a concern. The uncoated surface of this window allows for broadband transmission but may be more susceptible to scratches and contaminants than coated surfaces.
The window's flat geometry ensures minimal distortion, making it ideal for use in imaging systems. Its thin lens shape allows for easy integration into existing optical designs. The window is currently in stock, according to the vendor's website, and detailed specifications and purchasing information can be found at the provided weblink.
