WQZ8003 80 mm Dia. Z-Cut Quartz Right Handed Round Window; t=3mm Uncoated

The WQZ8003 is a high-quality optical window offered by Knight Optical, boasting a diameter of 80 mm and a thickness of 3 mm. This window is fabricated from quartz (SiO2), a popular material in optical applications due to its excellent transparency and resistance to heat and chemicals.

As a Z-cut window, it features a unique crystalline orientation that can provide specific optical properties, making it suitable for applications where precise control over optical indicatrices is required. The window is right-handed, indicating the direction of the optic axis, which is crucial in birefringent materials like quartz.

The window is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers of material applied to its surface. This can be beneficial in applications where maintaining the original optical properties of the quartz is essential. However, it may not be ideal for situations requiring specific surface properties, such as reflectivity or anti-reflection.

Knight Optical, the vendor, provides a catalog number (WQZ8003) for easy identification and ordering. The window is currently in stock and available for immediate purchase through their website.
