OPB-100C15-1-5 100 mm Dia. N-BK7 Round Optical Parallel Flat Window; t=15 mm Uncoated

Discover the OPB-100C15-1-5, a 100 mm diameter N-BK7 round optical parallel flat window with a thickness of 15 mm, uncoated and sourced from OptoSigma. This window is a type of flat window, designed with a base shape of a circle, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.

The window is made from N-BK7, a popular glass type in the optical industry, known for its excellent optical properties. This material, also known as Schott glass, is renowned for its low dispersion and high Abbe number, making it an ideal choice for applications that require high precision and minimal chromatic aberration.

The window has a diameter of 100 mm and a thickness of 15 mm, providing a robust and stable platform for optical systems. Despite its thickness, the window is classified as a 'thin lens' due to its minimal curvature, which helps to minimize optical distortions.

The window is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers applied to its surface. This can be beneficial in certain applications where the natural properties of the glass are desired, or where cost considerations are a factor. However, it's important to note that uncoated windows may be more susceptible to environmental factors such as dust, moisture, and scratches, so they may require more frequent cleaning and maintenance.

This window is designed to operate at a wavelength of 588 nm, making it suitable for a wide range of visible light applications. The window's geometry and material properties make it a versatile and reliable choice for various optical systems.
