Description
The rugged, bonded construction of the barium fluoride viewports allows bake-out to a maximum of 120 °C with ultra-high vacuum (UHV) performance, while the window offers extended broadband optical transmission from deep UV to the infra-red. Specially coated optics optimized to minimize reflectance at the customer-specified wavelength can be quoted on request.
Non-standard viewports can be manufactured on request, including re-entrant style microscope/camera viewports. Annealed copper gaskets and other component accessories are also supplied by TSL.
