High-Precision ZnSe Window for Infrared Optics

Description

The High-Precision ZnSe (Zinc Selenide) Window is specifically designed for advanced infrared (IR) optical applications, offering superior transmission across the infrared spectrum. ZnSe is a highly transparent material in the IR region, making it an ideal choice for IR laser systems, thermal imaging, and spectroscopy. With a low absorption coefficient and high resistance to thermal shock, ZnSe windows provide reliable performance in demanding environments.

These windows are available in customizable sizes, with diameters up to 300 mm and thicknesses up to 50 mm, to suit a wide range of optical designs. The surface quality, with roughness ranging from 2 to 6 nm, and flatness of Lambda/10, ensures minimal optical distortion, making these windows perfect for high-precision IR applications in research, aerospace, and industrial sectors.
