Barium Fluoride Biconcave Lens PBa06-
Barium fluoride biconcave lenses have concave surfaces on both sides and are commonly used for applications such as beam expansion, projection, and beam alignment. Using barium fluoride as the substrate material, it has high hardness, resistance to mechanical and thermal shock, and good transmittance in the ultraviolet, visible, and infrared fields. Used in lenses, beam splitters, filters, prisms, and window panels in low-temperature refrigeration imaging systems, aerospace optical systems, and laser optical systems. Can be coated with MgF2, UV-AR, UV-VIS, VIS-EXT, VIS-NIR, NIR I, NIR II, Telecom NIR, SWIR, SWIR, YAG-BBAR and other film systems.
