Description
Zinc Selenide (ZnSe) Windows are high-performance infrared optical components fabricated from high-purity ZnSe material. With an extremely broad transmission range covering visible to far-infrared regions, low absorption coefficient, and high laser damage threshold, ZnSe windows are widely used in high-power CO₂ laser systems, FTIR spectrometers, thermal imaging, medical laser devices, and industrial infrared detection. They feature superior optical homogeneity, low scatter, and stable physical and chemical properties, making them the preferred choice for demanding infrared optical systems.
