WQZ50005 50 mm Dia. Z-Cut Quartz Left Handed Round Window; t=5mm Uncoated

This WQZ50005 optical window, sourced from Knight Optical, is a 50 mm diameter Z-cut quartz window with a thickness of 5 mm. As a flat window, it offers excellent optical flatness and minimal optical distortion, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. Its base shape is circular, providing a broad aperture and excellent light transmission.

The window is made of high-quality quartz (SiO2), a material known for its excellent optical properties, including high transparency across a wide spectrum, making it ideal for use in various wavelengths. In this particular instance, the window is designed for use with a wavelength of 633 nm.

The window features a left-handed design, which is a critical consideration for certain applications. The term "left-handed" refers to the orientation of the optic axis in relation to the window's physical dimensions. This orientation can significantly impact the window's performance in certain setups, making it essential to choose the correct orientation for your specific application.

Notably, this window is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers applied to its surface. While coatings can enhance certain optical properties, such as reducing reflection or increasing transmission, an uncoated window can offer simplicity and cost-effectiveness, making it a versatile choice for many applications.

The window is currently in stock and available for immediate purchase through the provided weblink. With its robust specifications and high-quality construction, this WQZ50005 optical window is an excellent choice for various optical systems and setups.
