TECHSPEC® 1λ UV Fused Silica Windows
From fast modifications to stock optics to custom designs, we can help you take your optical system from design to prototype to volume production. Contact us to get started today.
TECHSPEC® 1λ UV Fused Silica Windows are precision manufactured using UV-grade synthetic fused silica. In addition to superior transmission, the synthetic fused silica of these optical windows exhibits higher thermal properties, exceptional purity, and excellent environmental durability for demanding applications. The windows are ideal for cost-sensitive broadband applications and are available uncoated or with broadband anti-reflection coatings. TECHSPEC® 1λ UV Fused Silica Windows have sizes ranging from 5mm to 100mm diameter. λ/4 or λ/10 UV Fused Silica Windows are also available.
Note: New additions to this product family may be specified with a transmitted wavefront distortion (TWD) specification instead of a surface flatness. For more information on the difference between these two specifications, see our application note on Understanding Optical Windows.
