The WG10530-B is a high-quality, broadband precision window offered by Thorlabs. This window, designed for general-purpose use, is made from N-BK7, a popular glass type in the optical industry due to its excellent optical properties. The window has a diameter of 0.5 inches (12.7 mm) and a thickness of 3 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
The window features an anti-reflection coating on both the front and back surfaces, designed to minimize reflection and increase transmission in the 650-1050 nm wavelength range. This coating is crucial for applications where maintaining high transmission and reducing stray light is essential.
The window's shape is defined as a thin lens, which is a lens with a thickness much less than its diameter. This shape ensures minimal optical aberration, making the window ideal for imaging and beam manipulation applications.
