WSB-50C08-10-0.5 50 mm Dia. N-BK7 Wedged Window; t=8 mm Uncoated

OptoSigma's WSB-50C08-10-0.5 is a wedged 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 has a base shape of a circle, with a diameter of 50 mm, and a thickness of 8 mm.

The wedge angle of this component is 0.008726646259971648 radians, or approximately 0.5 degrees. This is a crucial characteristic of wedged windows, as it helps to minimize unwanted internal reflections and other optical aberrations.

The material used in the construction of this wedged window is N-BK7, a type of borosilicate glass manufactured by Schott. This material is known for its excellent optical properties, including a high refractive index and low dispersion, making it a popular choice for a wide range of optical applications.

The window is uncoated, meaning it does not have any additional layers applied to its surfaces to alter its optical properties. This can be advantageous in certain applications where the natural properties of the glass are desired, or where cost is a significant factor.
