04 Aug 2015 Perkins Precision Developments (PPD) manufactures custom laser windows and precision wedges in a variety of materials including fused silica, N-BK7, Infrasil and YAG. Typical options include Plane parallel windows, Matched wedge pairs, Low-loss ARs to R < 0.1%, Super-polished surfaces, Pick-off windows and Uncoated Brewster windows.
Windows are available uncoated or coated with our high energy thin film coatings for applications in the UV, visible and near-infrared (NIR). Typical coatings include AR, BBAR, beam splitter and polarizing designs. Because we utilize Ion Beam Sputtered (IBS) coating technology, our AR coated parallel windows and wedge pairs are both durable and easy to clean. In addition, they demonstrate low losses due to absorption and scatter, as well as high damage thresholds, making them ideal for both intra-cavity or extra-cavity laser applications.
PPD's experienced manufacturing team employs both interferometers and autocollimators to achieve precise measurements, allowing us to offer parallelism tolerances to < 1 arcsecond! |
