The OPB-10S05-10-5 is a 10 x 10 mm N-BK7 Square Optical Parallel Flat Window, featuring a thickness of 5 mm and sourced from OptoSigma. This window is a type of flat optical component designed to maintain the direction of an incident light beam while minimizing reflections and distortions.
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 BK7, is a borosilicate crown glass with a refractive index of approximately 1.5168 at 588 nm, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
The window's rectangular base shape, with dimensions of 10 x 10 mm, is designed to provide a larger area for light transmission compared to circular windows of the same diameter. The thickness of 5 mm ensures robustness and rigidity, making it suitable for applications where the window may be subject to mechanical stress.
Notably, this window is uncoated, meaning it does not have any anti-reflective or other coatings. While this may result in higher reflections compared to coated windows, it also means that the window can be used in a wider range of wavelengths without the risk of coating damage.
The window is currently in stock and available for purchase. For more information, please refer to the vendor's website provided in the item data.
