The 68-501 is a 25 mm diameter, 3mm thick Zinc Selenide (ZnSe) protective flat window, sourced from Edmund Optics. This window is designed with Broadband Anti-Reflection (BBAR) coating on both the front and back surfaces, optimized for the 8-12µm wavelength range.
The Zinc Selenide material, identified as 'znse connolly' in the item data, is a popular choice for infrared applications due to its excellent transmission properties in this spectral range. The window's geometry, featuring a 25mm diameter and 3mm thickness, provides a robust and compact solution for various optical systems.
The window's BBAR coating is designed to minimize reflection losses, enhancing the overall system's efficiency. This coating is specifically tailored for the 8-12µm wavelength range, making it ideal for mid-infrared applications.
The window's flat shape ensures excellent optical quality, minimizing aberrations and distortions. This makes it suitable for use in imaging systems, interferometers, and other applications where high optical quality is required.
