Optical windows are transparent, flat, plane-parallel optical surfaces designed to shield sensors and electronic instruments from environmental conditions. When selecting optical windows, considerations include material transmission properties, scattering, strength, and resistance to various environments. They should not affect the magnification of a system and can be optically polished to diffuse light sources for controlled illumination.
Anti-reflective (AR) coatings can enhance transmission performance for specific wavelengths. These windows are available in materials like UV fused silica, quartz, IR crystals, and optical glasses. They offer properties such as x-ray protection, resistance to UV-induced browning, and light transmission from deep ultraviolet to far-infrared.
Mokoptics Optical Windows product range includes wedges, substrates, discs, flats, plates, rods, protection windows, laser windows, camera windows, light guides, and domes. These windows find applications in scientific, industrial, medical, defense, instrumentation, laser, research, and imaging sectors worldwide.
Standard range stock is available, and custom optical windows can be manufactured to specific sizes, designs, and specifications as needed.
