83-528 12.5 mm Dia. N-BK7 Laser Line Window; t=3 mm Laser V-Coat 1550nm

The 83-528 is a high-quality Window component from Edmund Optics, designed primarily for use in laser applications. This Window boasts a 12.5 mm diameter and a thickness of 3 mm, making it a compact yet robust solution for various optical systems.

The Window is crafted from N-BK7, a popular glass type in the optical industry, known for its excellent optical properties. N-BK7, or Schott glass, offers a high refractive index and low dispersion, making it an ideal choice for laser applications. The Window's geometry is flat, ensuring minimal distortion and providing superior optical performance.

The 83-528 is specifically designed for use with a 1550 nm wavelength, making it suitable for a wide range of laser systems. It features a front and back coating of edm las v-coat 1550, a specialized coating that enhances its performance in laser applications. This coating is designed to increase transmission while reducing reflection, ensuring optimal laser beam propagation.

The Window's shape is thin lens, indicating its ability to focus or collimate light. However, its primary function is to provide a protective barrier for optical components while maintaining excellent optical transmission.
