The 45-567 is a 6.35 mm diameter uncoated sapphire window, boasting a thickness of 0.5 mm, making it an ideal choice for applications requiring high durability and excellent optical properties. Sourced from the reputable vendor, Edmund Optics, this window is designed to provide reliable and consistent performance.
This window is categorized as a flat window, which means it has a planar surface on both sides, ensuring minimal distortion and scattering of light. Its base shape is circular, a common choice for applications requiring a uniform light path. The window's geometry, including its diameter and thickness, are precisely engineered to meet the demands of various optical systems.
The material ID for this window is al2o3 mal-1972-n-o, indicating it is made of sapphire, a material renowned for its exceptional hardness, chemical resistance, and optical clarity. Sapphire has a high refractive index and low dispersion, making it an excellent choice for applications involving high-power lasers or extreme environments.
The window is designed to operate at a wavelength of 587.6 nm, although it can be used across a broader spectrum given its material properties. It features a thin lens shape, which contributes to its minimal optical power and low aberration.
Notably, this window is uncoated, meaning it does not have any anti-reflective or other surface coatings. While coatings can enhance certain properties, an uncoated window offers simplicity and versatility, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
