PL3-2037C 2 in Dia. N-BK7 Wedged Window; t=0.375 in Uncoated

The PL3-2037C is a wedge window, a type of optical element designed to allow light to pass through while providing protection for the more sensitive components of an optical system. This particular model, sourced from Laser Components, boasts a base shape of a circle with a diameter of 50.8 millimeters, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.

The window's edge thickness maxes out at 9.525 millimeters, providing a robust structure that can withstand typical handling and usage in optical systems. The wedge angle, a critical parameter in wedge windows, is 0.05236 degrees, which is designed to minimize unwanted optical effects such as beam deviation and double images.

The material of this window is N-BK7, a type of borosilicate glass known for its excellent optical properties and durability. This material is often used in high-precision optical systems due to its low coefficient of thermal expansion and high homogeneity.

The window is designed to operate at a wavelength of 633 nanometers, making it suitable for applications that use red light, such as certain types of lasers or optical imaging systems. The coating of this window is unspecified, indicating that it is likely in its raw, uncoated state. This may be desirable in certain applications where the user wishes to apply their own coating or where a coating is not necessary.
