CO2 Laser Optical Windows
These protective ZnSe optical windows for CO2 lasers are used either for protecting sensitive and/or expensive optics, or for separating areas with different gas pressures.
- High transmittance
- Low absorption Black Magic™ or Duralens™ coatings
- ZnSe substrate with AR-coating on both surfaces See All Features
Features
Windows for CO<sub>2</sub> Laser
Windows for CO2 lasers are used either for protecting sensitive and/or expensive optics, or for separating areas with different gas pressures. In all applications, high transmittance and low absorption are needed in order to minimize distortion of the laser beam. Therefore, such windows usually consist of ZnSe substrates with AR-coatings on both surfaces (the same as focusing lenses).
