The WG11050-B is a precision window, designed and manufactured by Thorlabs, featuring a base shape of a flat, circular window. This window is constructed from N-BK7, a type of borosilicate glass, which is renowned for its excellent optical properties, making it a popular choice for various optical applications. The window has a diameter of 1 inch (25.4 mm) and a thickness of 5 mm, providing a robust and stable platform for optical systems.
The WG11050-B is coated with a broadband anti-reflection coating, specifically designed for the wavelength range of 650-1050 nm. This coating, denoted as 'tho b bbar', is applied to both the front and back surfaces of the window. The anti-reflection coating reduces unwanted reflections, thereby enhancing the transmission of light through the window. This feature makes the WG11050-B an ideal choice for applications that require high transmission and low loss, such as laser systems and imaging applications.
The window is designed in the shape of a thin lens, which can be beneficial in certain applications where a flat window may cause optical aberrations. The thin lens shape can help mitigate these aberrations, providing a clearer and more accurate optical path.
