WW40530-A 0.5 in Dia. AR Coated; UVFS Wedged Window; t=3 mm 350-700nm
The WW40530-A is a high-quality wedge window, part of Thorlabs' extensive catalog of optical elements. This component boasts a 0.5-inch diameter and a thickness of 3 mm, making it suitable for a wide range of optical applications.
The window features a wedge angle of approximately 0.008726646259971648 radians, or about 0.5 degrees, which can help reduce back reflections and improve overall system performance. The wedge shape is designed to prevent interference between reflections from the two surfaces, making it ideal for use in laser systems and other applications where maintaining optimal signal quality is crucial.
The WW40530-A is made from UVFS material, which is specifically designed for use in the 350-700 nm wavelength range. This makes it suitable for use with a wide range of visible light sources, including lasers and LEDs.
Both the front and back surfaces of the window are coated with Thorlabs' AR coating, which is designed to reduce reflection and improve transmission. This coating is optimized for use at a wavelength of 633 nm, but it provides good performance across the entire UVFS material's operational wavelength range.
