The WBF1010 is a 10 x 10 mm Barium Fluoride (BaF2) rectangular window with a thickness of 1 mm, sourced from Knight Optical. This uncoated window is designed for use in optical systems, offering excellent transparency and durability.
The window's rectangular shape, with dimensions of 10 mm in width and length, provides a larger surface area for light transmission compared to circular windows of similar diameter. This can be beneficial in applications where maximum light transmission is required.
The BaF2 material, also known as CGDM, is a high-performance optical material known for its wide transparency range, extending from the ultraviolet (UV) to the infrared (IR) region. This makes the WBF1010 suitable for a wide range of applications, including UV, visible, and IR spectroscopy, as well as laser systems and optical imaging.
The window's thin lens shape and uncoated surface further enhance its performance. The thin lens shape minimizes optical distortion, while the uncoated surface ensures high damage threshold and low absorption, making it ideal for high-power laser applications.
The WBF1010 is currently in stock and available for immediate purchase from Knight Optical's website. With its high-quality construction, wide transparency range, and versatile design, the WBF1010 is an excellent choice for a variety of optical applications.
