The 68-506 is a 12.5 mm diameter Zinc Selenide (ZnSe) protective flat window, with a thickness of 1 mm and no coating. This window is sourced from Edmund Optics, a reputable vendor known for its high-quality optical elements.
The window is designed as a flat window, which is a type of optical window that does not have any curvature. This particular model has a base shape of a circle, which is the most common shape for optical windows due to its ease of use and versatility.
The material of this window is Zinc Selenide, identified in the item data as "znse marple-1964". Zinc Selenide is a popular material for optical windows due to its excellent transmission properties in the infrared region of the spectrum. It is also chemically stable and resistant to environmental conditions, making it suitable for use in a wide range of applications.
The window is designed for use at a wavelength of 587.6 nm. This wavelength falls within the visible spectrum, suggesting that this window is intended for use in visible light applications.
The window has a shape of a thin lens, which is a type of lens with a very small thickness compared to its diameter. This shape is often used in optical systems where a thin, flat window is required.
The window is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers applied to its surface. This can be advantageous in certain applications where a natural surface is preferred, or where the additional cost of a coating is not justified.
According to the item data, this window is in stock and available for purchase, making it a readily available option for those in need of a high-quality Zinc Selenide protective flat window.
