What is Optical Window?
Optical Windows are flat, plane-parallel, transparent optical surfaces designed to protect sensor, and other electronic instruments from environment conditions.
How to Choose Optical Wafer?
Optical Glass Window selection considerations include material transmission properties as well as scattering, strength and resistance to certain environments.
What are the Materials of Optical Flat?
The windows are made in a range of materials including Sapphire, UV Fused Silica, Quartz, IR Crystals and BK7/k9 etc..
Coatings of Optical Glass Windows
Optical window can be a protection of original when it’s in two physical environments. And there is almost no effect on visible light,to coating on the surface of windows could increase the transmittance,the commonly used coatings are antireflection coating (AR) and scratch-resistant coating(AS).Optical glass flat with coating can enhance the light penetration strength,and own function of waterproof ,dustproof,and scratch-proof.

Types of Optical Windows
- Infrared (IR) Windows
Infrared windows are often used in FLIR, FTIR spectroscopy, medical systems, thermal imaging, or other optics applications within the infrared light spectrum. IR windows can help protect your employees and equipment.
VY Optics can custom manufacture IR windows in a variety of shapes, sizes, substrates, and coatings for various infrared applications. AR coating is available for one or both surfaces. - Visible Windows
Visible window is ideal for protecting optical systems and other optical components, imaging or display systems etc..
VY Optics custom manufacture visible windows in a variety of shapes, sizes, and substrates.

What is optical grade glass?
Optical glass is defined material in terms of refractive index, Abbe number, and other optical properties. Usually, it has a very high material purity, contains only minimal amounts of bubbles and inclusions, and often features an excellent refractive index homogeneity and high light transmission.
