Ideal for Thermal Imaging, FLIR, and Medical Systems
ISP Optics Zinc Selenide (ZnSe) Windows feature low absorption and low dispersion across a wide wavelength range from the visible to the infrared spectrum. This makes Zinc Selenide ideal for a wide array of infrared applications including thermal imaging, FLIR, and medical systems. Zinc Selenide (ZnSe) is a relatively soft material that scratches easily and it is not recommended in harsh environments because its Knoop Hardness is only 120. ISP Optics Zinc Selenide (ZnSe) Windows are particularly useful for 10.6µm CO2 laser applications, due to its low absorption. These windows are available uncoated or with Broadband Anti-Reflection (BBAR) coating options for 2 - 13µm or 8 - 12µm for increased transmission.
Note: Special care should be taken when handling Zinc Selenide as it is a toxic material. Always wear rubber or plastic gloves to avoid risk of contamination.
