Meller Optics, Inc. recently introduced its calcium fluoride (CaF2) optics that operate from the UV to IR for use in spectroscopy, laser, and front surface protection applications.
Meller CaF2 Optics are manufactured to OEM specification as plano-convex, plano-concave, and meniscus lenses; as plane, wedged, and meniscus lenses; as plane, wedged, and tapered windows; and as prisms in a wide variety of configurations.
Key Features
- Highly polished surface for long life
- Operate over a 0.2 to 9 microns range with 90 to 95 percent transmission uncoated
- Offered in 1/4” to 5” diameter sizes
- Can be supplied as windows, lenses, and prisms for a wide variety of applications including spectroscopic windows because of its high transmittance from 150 nm to 9,000 nm
- Low absorption rate and high damage threshold make it effective for detectors, sensors, and laser optics
