Optical windows are transparent plates used to protect instruments or sensors from the external environment. They have a high transmission of light within specific wavelength ranges, and often have anti-reflective (AR) coatings applied to improve their transmission properties. When selecting optical windows, it is important to consider specifications such as transmission, refractive index, hardness of materials, and the quality of the optical surface.
MOK Optics Co LTD is a supplier that offers custom and off-the-shelf optical windows. They provide a range of options including UV/VIS optical windows made from materials like MgF2, CaF2, or UV fused silica. They also offer VIS/NIR windows made from optical glass or fused silica, as well as IR windows made from Germanium (Ge), Silicon, Zenic Selenide (ZnSe), and Sapphire. In addition, they provide high-precision laser windows and ultra-thin, high-flatness optical windows specifically designed for femtosecond lasers.

What is the difference between glass and optical glass?
Glass is a broad term that refers to a solid material that is typically transparent or translucent and made by heating a mixture of silica (silicon dioxide) and other additives. It is a versatile material used in various applications, ranging from windows and bottles to lenses and optical components.
On the other hand, optical glass is a specific type of glass that is specially manufactured to have precise optical properties. It is designed to have low levels of impurities and a high degree of homogeneity, ensuring consistent optical performance. Optical glass is engineered to have specific refractive indices and dispersion characteristics, allowing it to effectively control the behavior of light passing through it. This makes it suitable for use in lenses, prisms, filters, and other optical components where precise control of light is required.
The manufacturing process of optical glass involves careful selection of raw materials, stringent quality control measures, and precise manufacturing techniques. The composition of optical glass can vary depending on the desired optical properties, and it may contain additional elements such as boron, lead, or lanthanum to achieve specific refractive indices or dispersion characteristics.
In summary, while glass is a general term for a transparent or translucent material, optical glass is a specialized type of glass specifically tailored for optical applications with precise control over its optical properties.
