Wedge Windows Wedge Sapphire Windows for aerospace, medical, and industrial applications
round-sapphire-windows
  • Extremely hard, strong and wear resistant
  • Excellent thermal conductivity/heat resistance
  • Exceptionalchemical stability
  • Excellent transmission bandwidths (UV to IR)
  • Blank substrates, AR-coated pieces, and precision windows are available
  • Wedge window HYT Sapphire Optics is a leading provider of high quality Wedge window. The team has decades of experience providing top notch Wedge windows.

    The high-precision Wedge Windows can avoid the etalon effect caused by the light reflected on the front and rear surfaces of the high-parallel Windows, and at the same time, it can also avoid interference with reflected beam, which causes power frustration and modes jumping.

    The sapphire Wedge Windows sapphire optical wedge window has similar function with traditional optical window. It also has two well-polished planes, and the two planes form a angle. Sapphire wedge can be used as isolating components. In addition to features similar to normal wedge windows, the sapphire wedge window has a harder, stronger, and more wear-resistant properties. It is widely used in some special environments.

    Wedge window is an optical element with plane-inclined surfaces, usually the faces are inclined toward one another at a very small angles. It diverts light toward its thicker portion. Wedge prisms can be used as isolating components. Wedges may also be used to produce a small deviation which doesn't allow return to source.

    We have different materials of Wedge Windows,such as K9 Wedge Windows,Fused Silica Wedge Windows.

    Flat-Sapphire Wedge Windows

    Wedge Windows Application examples
    • Protection from undesirable laser cavity feedback
    • Elimination of fringe pattern due to back reflections
    • Variable beam steering
    • Beam sampling

    Windows with a slight wedge are commonly used to prevent harmful laser cavity feedback and beam interference effects. Standard 4Lasers uncoated flat-wedge windows are fabricated from BK7 and UV grade fused silica optical glass. UV grade fused silica glass flat-wedge window is a good option for UV, ultrashort pulse, and high-power laser applications because of low sensitivity to temperature variations, relatively high damage threshold, and UV transmission down to 185 nm. The BK7 glass window is a cost-effective choice for visible and near-infrared range, low/mid-power laser, and non-laser applications.

    Notes

  • Anti-reflection coatings are also available at your specified wavelength.
  • Sapphire transmits ultraviolet light, but sometimes exhibit fluorescence when subjected to powerful ultraviolet sources. For this reason, they are best suited for use with visible to infrared wavelengths.
  • Be sure to wear laser safety goggles when checking optical path and adjusting optical axis.
