The 560-6120 is a 12.7 mm diameter Zinc Selenide (ZnSe) window, featuring a thickness of 2 mm and uncoated for versatility in various applications. This component is sourced from EKSMA Optics, a reputable vendor specializing in UV and IR optics.
As a window, this optical element is designed to protect other components from environmental factors while maintaining optical performance. Its flat shape ensures minimal distortion, making it suitable for use in systems demanding high-quality imaging or precise beam control.
The Zinc Selenide material (ZnSe) is transparent in the mid-infrared spectral region, making this window an excellent choice for applications in this range. The specified wavelength of 10600 nm falls within the 3-5 μm atmospheric transmission window, often used in spectroscopy, gas sensing, and thermal imaging systems.
The uncoated nature of this window provides freedom of customization, allowing users to apply coatings based on their specific requirements. However, it is essential to consider that uncoated windows may exhibit higher reflectivity than coated alternatives, which could impact overall system performance.
