WHQ1600 16 mm Dia. Quartz Round Window; t=1.5mm Uncoated

The WHQ1600 is a 16 mm diameter Quartz Round Window with a thickness of 1.5mm, sourced from Knight Optical. This window is a flat, circular optical component designed for use in various applications where transparency and durability are crucial.

The window is made of quartz (SiO2), a material known for its high transparency across a wide range of wavelengths, including the visible spectrum. This makes it an ideal choice for applications that require clear, undistorted light transmission. The window's 1.5mm thickness provides a good balance between strength and light transmission, ensuring the component can withstand typical usage while minimizing light absorption and distortion.

The window's geometry is defined by its 16mm diameter, making it suitable for use in systems with similar aperture sizes. The thin lens shape of the window ensures minimal optical distortion, making it suitable for use in imaging systems or where undistorted light transmission is required.

Notably, this window is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers applied to its surface. While this may result in slightly higher light absorption compared to coated windows, it ensures the window maintains its high transparency across a wide range of wavelengths. Additionally, uncoated windows are generally more cost-effective and easier to clean and maintain.
