Germanium Biconvex Lens PGe05-
Germanium biconvex lenses are usually made of germanium single crystal materials and have excellent optical and mechanical properties. In equipment such as LiDAR, optical sensors, and spectrometers, as a transmission or reflection device for optical paths, the transmission spectrum range is 2-12 μm, which is a very commonly used infrared optical material with high hardness, good thermal conductivity, and insoluble in water. When manufacturing germanium biconvex lenses, precision machining and polishing processes are usually required to ensure their surface quality and optical performance. It 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.
