Barium fluoride(BaF2)
ICC has barium fluoride for IR(high transparency)/ flicker (low background) applications in high-energy physics, multispectral cameras, infrared thermometry and thermal imaging.
It has the advantages of wide spectrum, large supply and low price. It can be used as windows, flat films, domes, lenses, prisms, etc., and has a wide range of applications in FTIR, LWIR, hyperspectral cameras and other fields.
Applications :
lens | The ball cap | FTIR attachment | The IR light source | Focusing lens | Coated specimens |
