The 83-527 is a high-quality window from Edmund Optics, designed for use with 1550nm lasers. This window boasts a 10mm diameter and a thickness of 2mm, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications.
The window is made from N-BK7, a popular glass type known for its excellent optical properties. This material, also known as BK7, is a borosilicate crown glass that offers low dispersion and high transmission in the visible and near-infrared regions. It is also highly resistant to thermal shock and chemical attack, making it a reliable choice for demanding environments.
The 83-527 is coated with Edmund Optics' Las V-Coat 1550, a specialized coating designed for use with 1550nm lasers. This coating provides high transmission and low reflectivity, ensuring optimal performance and efficiency. It is applied to both the front and back surfaces of the window, providing comprehensive protection and performance enhancement.
The window is shaped as a thin lens, a design that minimizes optical aberrations and distortions. This makes it an excellent choice for applications that require high precision and accuracy, such as laser cutting, engraving, and marking.
