ZnSe Windows
ZnSe Windows for CO2 laser protection, infrared transmission, and thermal imaging apertures. Request review for size, coating, aperture, and drawings.
Product Overview

Overview
ZnSe Windows are specified for CO2 laser protection, infrared transmission, and thermal imaging apertures. This page focuses on material choice, geometry, coating route, and the engineering information needed before a quotation.
Why This Design Matters
CVD Zinc Selenide (ZnSe) is used because low absorption and high infrared transmission for CO2 laser and thermal imaging optics. For this product, the key decision is whether the ZnSe flat or custom infrared window, aperture, coating, and mounting conditions match the optical layout.

Application Guidance
Use this product when the optical path requires CO2 laser protection, infrared transmission, and thermal imaging apertures. Engineers should confirm wavelength, beam diameter or field size, clear aperture, coating target, and mechanical envelope before final drawings are released.

Engineering Notes and Inquiry
For custom production, send diameter, thickness, clear aperture, coating target, and mounting environment. OPTOstokes-IROptical can review the drawing, confirm feasible specification ranges, and align the optical component with the downstream assembly.
For assemblies that also require focusing or collimation, compare ZnSe lenses within the same infrared material family.
