Transparent Spinel Spherical Window Descriptions:

Transparent spinel (Magnesium aluminum transparent ceramics) has many applications in optics, electronics and structure.

Transparent spinel can be used to prepare visible to mid infrared windows and lenses. The theoretical transmittance of 3~5μm is close to 87%, which is close to ALON and sapphire, and the cutoff wavelength is slightly longer than both, especially in the mid-infrared imaging system performance.

The properties of transparent ceramic spinel and alumina are similar. It’s suitable for various circuit components such as thick film circuit, thin film circuit, integrated circuit carrier and chip packaging and other high-performance substrate materials.

Transparent Spinel Spherical Window FAQs

Q1: What is a Transparent Spinel Spherical Window?

A transparent spinel spherical window is a curved, dome-shaped optical component made from magnesium aluminate spinel (MgAl₂O₄). Spinel is known for its exceptional optical clarity, hardness, and durability, making it suitable for demanding applications where a spherical shape is required for optical performance.

Q2: What sizes and shapes are available for Transparent Spinel Spherical Windows?

Transparent spinel spherical windows are available in various diameters and thicknesses to meet different application needs. Custom sizes and shapes can also be manufactured to meet specific requirements.

Q3: What precautions should be taken when using Transparent Spinel Spherical Windows?

Handling: Handle with care to avoid mechanical damage. Use gloves to prevent contamination.

Cleaning: Avoid abrasive cleaners and materials that could scratch the surface.
