The WQF5000 is a 50 mm diameter Quartz Round Window with a thickness of 3mm, sourced from Knight Optical. This window is a flat, circular optical component designed for use in a variety of applications.
The window is made of quartz, specifically fused silica (SiO2), a high-purity crystalline material known for its excellent optical properties. Quartz is highly transparent across a wide spectrum, making this window suitable for use in both the ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) regions, including the visible light spectrum. The window's 3mm thickness provides a good balance between mechanical strength and light transmission.
The window features a thin lens shape, which minimizes optical aberrations and distortions, ensuring optimal image quality. It is uncoated, meaning it does not have any anti-reflective or other surface coatings. This can be advantageous in certain applications where coatings may interfere with the optical path or are not required.
The WQF5000 is currently in stock and available for immediate purchase from Knight Optical. It can be found on their website at https://www.knightoptical.com/stock/default/ir-quartz-window-50mmdiax3mmthk.html.
