This is the WQZ3501, a 35 mm diameter Z-cut quartz right-handed round window, with a thickness of 1 mm and no coating. Sourced from Knight Optical, this window is a flat, circular optical component designed for use in various applications.
The window is made of quartz, also known as fused silica or silicon dioxide (SiO2), a high-purity natural sand that has been fused and devitrified. This material is known for its excellent optical, mechanical, and thermal properties, making it a popular choice for various optical applications.
The window features a Z-cut, a type of crystal orientation that provides unique properties beneficial for certain applications. The right-handed configuration refers to the direction of the optic axis, which can be crucial in specific optical systems.
The window has a diameter of 35 mm and a thickness of 1 mm, making it a thin lens. The thin lens design is beneficial in applications where weight and space are critical factors. Despite its thinness, the window is robust and can withstand typical optical environment conditions.
The window is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers applied to its surface. This can be beneficial in applications where no specific surface properties are required, or where the user prefers to apply their own coating.
