Edmund Optics offers a wide range of optical components made from silicon, including optical lenses, optical filters, and optical windows. Silicon optical lenses are well-suited for collimation and point focusing applications using monochromatic light. These lenses come in a variety of sizes and focal lengths to meet diverse application needs. A silicon lens kit is also available. Silicon optical filters are used in IR applications such as FTIR spectroscopy, and are employed for the transmission or blocking of specific IR wavelength ranges. Silicon optical windows are available in uncoated versions or with anti-reflective coatings for the 3-5 μm range. For more details, please visit the official Edmund Optics website via the link below.
basic information
Silicon optical elements are used in various infrared applications that function in the wavelength range of 1.2 to 7 μm, including near-infrared imaging and IR spectroscopic analysis. The low density of silicon (2.329 g/cm³) makes it suitable for use in weight-sensitive applications. Silicon has a Knoop hardness of 1150, making it harder than comparable germanium optical elements and not brittle.
