Infrared Optical Windows

Infrared Optical Windows are transparent optical elements that allow infrared radiation to pass through with minimal attenuation and distortion, ensuring that the signal received by the optical system remains intact. These windows act as protective barriers, safeguarding delicate optical components from contaminants such as dust, moisture, and chemicals, which could degrade performance or cause damage. Many infrared optical windows are engineered to withstand a wide range of environmental conditions, including temperature extremes, humidity, and pressure variations, without compromising optical quality or mechanical strength. Infrared optical windows find applications across diverse fields where the manipulation and detection of infrared radiation are crucial, including thermal imaging, remote sensing, defense, and industrial processing.

Hangzhou Shalom EO offers off-the-shelf and custom infrared windows that operate at a wide wavelength range from 0.75μm to 20μm, made of various substrate materials for selection: germanium (Ge), silicon (Si), zinc selenide (ZnSe), sapphire, calcium fluoride (CaF2), barium fluoride (BaF2), zinc sulfide (ZnS), etc. AR coating options include broad band anti-reflection coating (BBAR), long-pass anti-reflection coating and hard diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating to withstand harsh environments can be deposited.
