Zinc Selenide (CVD – ZnSe)

Factory of optical products LLC manufactures optics from Zinc Selenide (CVD – ZnSe).
optika-ZnSe

APPLICATION

ZnSe (CVD – ZnSe) is a thermally stable, uniform material.
ZnSe (zinc selenide) is used as various optical components operating in the IR range.
Zinc selenide infrared optics (ZnSe) made to order at Our optical production are widely used as components of CO2 laser systems up to 2 kW, in input devices like focusing and pass-through optics, as substrates for detectors. We produce standard and non-standard high-precision optics from ZnSe according to the requirements and drawings of the customer quickly and efficiently, as well as apply antireflection and beam-splitting coatings in the range (3 – 14) microns.

METHOD OF OBTAINING

Polycrystalline CVD-ZnSe (zinc selenide) is produced in reactors — plants using chemical vapor deposition processes.

The maximum dimensions of optics from polycrystalline ZnSe – (270mm X 500 mm x 35 mm)
The maximum size of Zinc Selenide (ZnSe) optics of laser quality (100 mm x 35 mm) is intended for high-power lasers.

ORDER OPTICS

To get a quotation or to order optics from ZnSe send a request by e-mail sale@optics.spb.ru

The cost of manufactured zinc selenide optics (ZnSe) is directly influenced by dimensions, tolerance requirements, parallelism, purity class, wedge angle, etc. The lower the requirements for optics, the lower its cost. Order ZnSe optics with exactly those “product requirements” that you need, but not exceeding them, this will allow you to buy ZnSe optics not expensive. Get exactly what you need!

In our production you can order and purchase, on very favorable conditions, optics from ZnSe (zinc selenide) in bulk from 10 to 20 pcs. and above, this is due to the presence of large production capacity, namely, machines “double-sided polishing”!
