The 87-699 is a 5 mm diameter Barium Fluoride (BaF2) window with a thickness of 1 mm, sourced from Edmund Optics. This window is designed as a flat protective component, ideal for various optical applications.
The BaF2 material, also known as CGDM, is a key feature of this window. It is renowned for its excellent transmission properties, particularly in the ultraviolet (UV) and mid-infrared (MIR) regions of the spectrum. The 87-699 window, therefore, is suitable for use in systems operating at a central wavelength of 587.6 nm.
The window is shaped as a thin lens, which can provide additional functionality in certain applications. However, it is important to note that this window does not come with any coatings. This means that while it offers excellent transmission properties, it may not provide the same level of protection against environmental factors as coated windows.
The window's geometry, with a 5 mm diameter and 1 mm thickness, makes it a versatile component that can be integrated into a wide range of optical systems. The uncoated BaF2 material, thin lens shape, and the specified geometry all contribute to the window's high performance and versatility.
