  • Ge Rectangles

    Germanium (Ge) is a high refractive index material (4.0 @ 10 microns) with good long wavelength transmission in the infrared spectral region. At elevated temperatures the free carrier absorption becomes important and at 200 °C it is almost opaque. The high refractive index of Ge limits transmission in applications where an anti-reflective coating cannot be used.

  • Ge Disks, XP-NBAR Coated Windows

    Application of Spectral Systems XP-NBAR™ (narrow-band anti-reflective) coating onto Ge windows considerably increases infrared throughput within a more limited spectral region. This coated window is optimized for the spectral region covering 8-12 microns.

  • Ge Disks, XP-BBAR Coated Windows

    Application of Spectral Systems XP-BBAR™ (broad-band anti-reflective) coating onto Ge windows considerably increases infrared throughput within the widest spectral range. This coated window is optimized for the spectral region covering 2-14 microns.
