The WG10530 Dia:0.5in N-BK7 Broadband Precision Window is a high-quality optical component designed for a wide range of applications. Manufactured by Thorlabs, this window is made from N-BK7, a popular glass type known for its excellent optical properties.
The window features a flat, circular shape with a diameter of 0.5 inches (12.7 mm) and a thickness of 3 mm. This combination of dimensions provides a robust and compact design, ideal for use in confined spaces or where minimal interference is required.
The window is uncoated, meaning it does not have any anti-reflective or other coatings applied to its surfaces. This can be beneficial in applications where broadband transmission is required, as coatings can sometimes introduce wavelength-dependent losses. However, it's important to note that uncoated windows can reflect a small percentage of incident light, which may need to be considered in your application.
The WG10530 is designed to be used at a wavelength of 633 nm, although its broadband transmission capabilities make it suitable for use across a wide range of wavelengths.
In terms of shape, the window is designed in the style of a thin lens, which can be beneficial in certain applications where focusing or collimation of light is required.
Overall, the WG10530 Dia:0.5in N-BK7 Broadband Precision Window is a versatile and high-performance optical component, ideal for use in a wide range of applications.
