WZN1605 16 mm Dia. Zinc Selenide Standard Round Window; t=0.5mm Uncoated

The WZN1605 is a 16 mm diameter Zinc Selenide (ZnSe) flat window, featuring a thickness of 0.5 mm. This window, sourced from Knight Optical, is a standard round window designed for general optical applications.

The window is made of Zinc Selenide, a material with the catalog number znse marple-1964 in Knight Optical's database. Zinc Selenide is a popular material in optical systems due to its excellent transmission properties in the infrared region, making it suitable for applications involving wavelengths up to 10600 nm.

The window has a base shape of a circle, a common geometry in optical systems due to its symmetry and ease of integration. The geometry of the window includes a diameter of 16 mm and a thickness of 0.5 mm, making it a thin lens. The thin lens design is beneficial in applications where minimizing optical path differences is crucial.

The window is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers of material applied to its surface. While coatings can enhance the performance of optical elements, an uncoated window can be advantageous in certain applications where simplicity, cost-effectiveness, or specific surface properties are desired.

The WZN1605 is currently in stock and available for purchase on Knight Optical's website. With its robust specifications and high-quality construction, this Zinc Selenide window is an excellent choice for various optical applications.
