Fused Silica Laser Protective Window: A High-Performance Optic for Laser Systems

Laser systems are widely used in various fields and industries, such as biological and medical analysis, digital products, surveying and mapping, national defense and laser systems. However, these systems also face various challenges and risks, such as debris, dust, inadvertent contact, thermal shock, and high laser power densities. These factors can damage the sensitive optics and components within the laser system, affecting its performance, reliability, and safety.

To address these challenges and risks, Jiujon Optics, a leading high-tech enterprise in the field of optics, has developed a special optic called the Fused Silica Laser Protective Window. This window is made of Fused Silica optical glass, which offers excellent transmission properties in the visible and near-infrared wavelength ranges. Fused Silica is also highly resistant to thermal shock and capable of withstanding high laser power densities, making it ideal for laser applications.

The Fused Silica Laser Protective Window acts as a barrier between the laser source and the optics and components within the laser system. It protects them from damage caused by debris, dust, and inadvertent contact, while maintaining excellent optical clarity. The window also ensures the stability and integrity of the laser system, as it can withstand intense thermal and mechanical stresses without compromising its quality.

The Fused Silica Laser Protective Window has the following specifications:

•  Substrate: UV Fused Silica (Corning 7980/ JGS1/ Ohara SK1300)

•  Dimensional Tolerance: ±0.1 mm

•  Thickness Tolerance: ±0.05 mm

•  Surface Flatness: 1 (0.5) @ 632.8 nm

•  Surface Quality: 40/20 or Better

•  Edges: Ground, 0.3 mm max. Full width bevel

•  Clear Aperture: 90%

•  Centering: <1′

•  Coating: Rabs<0.5% @ Design Wavelength

•  Damage Threshold: 532 nm: 10 J/cm², 10 ns pulse, 1064 nm: 10 J/cm², 10 ns pulse

The Fused Silica Laser Protective Window is available in a variety of industries and environments, including but not limited to:

•  Laser Cutting and Welding: This window protects sensitive optics and components from damage caused by debris and intense laser energy during cutting and welding.

•  Medical and Aesthetic Surgery: Laser devices used in surgery, dermatology and aesthetics can benefit from the use of protective windows to protect delicate equipment and ensure practitioner and patient safety.

•  Research and Development: Laboratories and research facilities frequently utilize lasers for scientific experiments and research. This window protects the optics, sensors and detectors within the laser system.

•  Industrial Manufacturing: Laser systems are widely used in industrial environments for tasks such as engraving, marking and material processing. Laser Protective windows can help maintain the integrity of optical systems in these environments.

•  Aerospace and Defense: Laser systems play a vital role in various applications in the aerospace and defense sector, including laser-based targeting and guidance systems. Laser protective windows ensure the reliability and longevity of these systems.

Overall, the Fused Silica Laser Protective Window is a high-performance optic that protects sensitive optics and components in a variety of laser applications, thereby contributing to the safety, efficiency, and longevity of laser systems in various industries. Jiujon Optics is proud to offer this product to its customers, along with a wide range of optical components and assemblies.
