Detail Information
Felix Glass supplies custom large-diameter CVD ZnSe and multispectral ZnS infrared windows pre-coated with 8–14μm broadband anti-reflection coating. Designed specifically for long-wave infrared thermal imaging systems, these big-aperture IR windows minimize surface reflection within the 8‑14μm atmospheric window, boost thermal image contrast and reduce ghost reflections. We support custom round, rectangular and domed large-size blanks, suitable for high-end PTZ thermal cameras, perimeter surveillance, vehicle thermal vision and airborne IR payloads. Standard small infrared windows cannot meet wide-field, high-resolution thermal camera aperture demands. Without 8–14μm BBAR coating, Fresnel reflection creates bright stray light and reduces signal-to-noise ratio for LWIR detectors. Our large-diameter CVD ZnSe and MS-ZnS windows are precision polished and coated for the 8–14μm atmospheric transmission band. Multispectral ZnS delivers superior mechanical strength for outdoor vibration-prone platforms; large ZnSe offers excellent homogeneity for high-precision thermal optics. Both versions suppress reflection loss and protect LWIR detector chips from dust, humidity and impact. Extra-large diameter CVD ZnSe / ZnS blanks, circular, rectangular and domed shapes available per customer drawings. Choose homogeneous ZnSe or rugged multispectral ZnS, matched to your thermal imaging environment and mechanical load requirements. The 8–14μm BBAR coating is the core feature of this product, engineered exclusively for long-wave infrared thermal imaging rather than CO₂ laser use. Multispectral ZnS is the preferred substrate for most outdoor, vehicle-borne and airborne large windows thanks to higher hardness and better abrasion resistance. Large ZnSe windows are selected when wavefront homogeneity and low scattering are top priorities, though ZnSe requires gentler handling. DLC overcoat can be added on ZnS versions for sand and scratch protection upon request. Large-format LWIR windows are built for systems that need wide field of view and high thermal resolution. The 8–14μm BBAR coating ensures stable thermal performance in standard atmospheric LWIR band. Large BBAR-coated ZnS windows for high-definition pan-tilt thermal cameras used in border and perimeter security. Shock-resistant large ZnS IR windows for automotive and armored vehicle LWIR thermal observation systems. Custom big-aperture LWIR windows for drone and manned aircraft thermal imaging payloads. Verify large blank availability, diameter, thickness, surface figure, 8–14μm BBAR coating and mounting constraints. Screen qualified big-size ZnSe / MS-ZnS blanks, inspect internal inclusions and bulk homogeneity. Specialized large-format CNC grinding for plano, rectangular or domed geometries. Ultra-precision polishing followed by broadband LWIR AR coating deposition and coating mapping test. FTIR transmission test at 8–14μm, interferometer inspection; reinforced shockproof packaging for large fragile optics. Large-diameter ZnSe / ZnS IR windows have longer lead time than standard small windows due to limited CVD large blank supply and specialized coating chambers. We strongly recommend sharing your CAD drawing, clear aperture target, mechanical mounting interface and operating environment at RFQ stage. Our IR engineers will advise whether MS-ZnS or ZnSe is better, and confirm if additional DLC hard coating is required for outdoor rugged service. Your priority is excellent optical homogeneity, low wavefront distortion for high-end stationary laboratory thermal imaging systems. The optic faces vibration, windblown dust, outdoor exposure, vehicle or airborne installation; higher mechanical durability needed. This broadband coating is optimized for LWIR thermal imaging, not suitable for 10.6μm CO2 laser transmission optics. It is broadband anti-reflection coating optimized for the long-wave infrared atmospheric window used by most uncooled LWIR thermal cameras. We can produce custom ZnSe / MS-ZnS IR windows up to Φ350mm; exact feasibility depends on blank stock and drawing geometry. Yes, rectangular large format ZnSe and ZnS windows with 8–14μm BBAR coating are fully customizable from drawings. DLC over BBAR is available for MS-ZnS only, adding scratch and erosion protection for harsh outdoor deployment. No. This coating is tuned for 8–14μm thermal band. Select our dedicated CO2 laser ZnSe windows for 10.6μm applications. Share your drawing, target diameter or rectangular size, substrate selection (ZnSe or MS-ZnS), mounting requirements and order quantity. Felix Glass infrared optical team will review large blank availability, coating yield and lead time, and provide formal quotation for your custom 8–14μm BBAR coated LWIR window.
