The 47-936 is a 10 mm diameter flat window made from Zinc Selenide (ZnSe) material, sourced from Edmund Optics. This protective window boasts a thickness of 1.5 mm and is equipped with a broadband anti-reflection (BBAR) coating on both the front and back surfaces, specifically designed for the 3-12 μm wavelength range.
The ZnSe material, also known as znse connolly, is a popular choice for optical components due to its excellent transmission properties in the infrared spectrum. This window is designed with a circular base shape and a thin lens shape, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
The BBAR coating on both surfaces of the window reduces reflection, thereby increasing transmission and improving overall system performance. The coating is specifically designed for the 3-12 μm wavelength range, making this window an ideal choice for applications in this spectrum.
The window's geometry, with a 10 mm diameter and 1.5 mm thickness, provides a balance between durability and compactness. This makes it suitable for use in systems where space is limited, yet robustness is required.
The window is currently in stock and available for purchase through the Edmund Optics website, as indicated by its valid weblink status. With its superior material and coating properties, the 47-936 Zinc Selenide Flat Window is an excellent choice for applications in the infrared spectrum.
