In addition to our in-stock fused silica optical windows, Advanced Optics team of skilled craftsmen can provide:
- Optical windows made of low expansion BOROFLOAT® 33, B270, N-BK7®, and Viosil
- Parallelism of > 2 arc seconds
- Scratch and Dig of 10-5
- Modification of supplied substrates
- Custom fabrication and free engineering services
- Anti-reflective coatings including, BBAR, MgF2, and custom coatings
Our λ/20 optical windows are manufactured from synthetic fused silica, which provides the following:
- A high degree of purity
- Superior environmental durability
- A low coefficient of thermal expansion
- Outstanding resistance to thermal shock
- Excellent transmission from the UV to the NIR
- Exceptional hardness for demanding applications requiring a high degree of flatness
Due to the above characteristics, fused silica windows are used in many industries including, aerospace, astronomy, military and commercial avionics, medical and scientific instrumentation, academics and research, and industrial applications. In addition, they are an excellent choice for laser applications, spectroscopy, photolithography, vacuum windows, and many other numerous applications.
Please refer to our Optical Window Design page for guidance on selecting the appropriate optical window for your application.
