The 68-507 is a 25 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 in the optical industry.
As a flat window, this component is designed to protect optical surfaces from damage, while minimally affecting the light path. Its base shape is circular, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. The window's geometry, with a diameter of 25 mm and a thickness of 1 mm, provides a balance between strength and transparency.
The material of this window is Zinc Selenide, identified as "znse marple-1964" in the Material ID. Zinc Selenide is a popular material in optical applications due to its excellent transmission properties in the infrared region, making it ideal for use in systems operating at wavelengths around 587.6 nm.
The window's shape is that of a thin lens, which means it has been fabricated to precise specifications to ensure minimal distortion of the light passing through it. The absence of a coating on this window means that it has not been treated to enhance its optical properties or protect it from environmental factors. This may be suitable for applications where such enhancements are not required or where the user prefers to apply their own coating.
The window's current status is "in stock", according to the vendor's website, ensuring quick delivery for your optical needs.
