The 83-359 is a circular, flat window made from Gorilla Glass with a 5 mm diameter and a thickness of 1.1 mm. This protective window is sourced from Edmund Optics and is available for purchase directly from their website, where it is currently listed as in stock.
Gorilla Glass is a popular choice for optical windows due to its durability and resistance to damage. It is a type of chemically strengthened glass that is designed to be thin, lightweight, and damage-resistant. This makes it an ideal choice for applications where a protective barrier is needed, but weight and space are at a premium.
The 83-359 is classified as a window in the 'Sub Type' field, indicating that it is designed to be transparent and allow light to pass through it. This makes it suitable for use in optical systems where light needs to be directed or manipulated in some way. The 'Thin Lens' shape further supports this, suggesting that the window is designed to focus or disperse light.
The window is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers applied to its surface. This can be beneficial in certain applications where a clear, unaltered view is required. However, it may also mean that the window is more susceptible to scratches and other forms of damage.
The window is designed to work with light at a wavelength of 587.6 nm. This wavelength falls within the visible light spectrum, suggesting that the window is intended for use with visible light.
