Germanium

 

Optical crystal germanium(Ge) has excellent through performance in 2-14 microns band, They are widely used as the window of the thermal imaging system and optical components.Our company production of optical crystal germanium products have excellent uniformity infrared transmittance and refractive index, and can make window,lens and prism and other special shaped products according to customer needs.

 

We can also make Diamond like Carbon Coating(DLC coating) for Ge windows.
