The 88-430 is a 25 mm diameter precision sapphire flat window, with a thickness of 2.3 mm and no coating. This window is sourced from Edmund Optics, a reputable vendor in the optical industry. The window is designed as a flat window, which is ideal for applications that require minimal optical distortion.
The window is made of sapphire, a material with the chemical formula Al2O3, and is identified as mal-1972-n-o in the Material ID. Sapphire is known for its exceptional hardness, second only to diamond, making it highly resistant to scratches and abrasions. It also has a high melting point and excellent thermal shock resistance, making it suitable for harsh environments.
The window is designed in the shape of a thin lens, which is beneficial for applications that require a compact optical design. The uncoated surface of the window allows for maximum transmission of light at the specified wavelength of 587.6 nm. However, it may have a higher reflectivity compared to coated surfaces, which could be a consideration for certain applications.
The window is in stock and available for immediate purchase, as indicated by its weblink status. For more information, you can visit the provided weblink: https://www.edmundoptics.com/p/25mm-dia-lambda4-uncoated-precision-sapphire-window/30688/
