What is a Germanium Infrared Lens?
Germanium Infrared Lens is an infrared optical lens mainly made of germanium (Ge).
It is widely used in infrared systems operating in the 3-12 μm wavelength range.
With its excellent transmittance and thermal stability to infrared light, germanium has become one of the ideal materials in infrared systems.
And Chenyu choose superior single crystal Germanium material to make the lens. It can be customized with your requirments.
Why choose Germanium Infrared lense?
With its superior infrared transmission rate, high stability and structural strength, the Ge infrared lens has become an indispensable key component in modern infrared systems.
Whether in thermal imaging, or in high-tech fields such as aerospace and military industries, it plays a core role.
The germanium lens, due to its outstanding performance, has become the first choice in infrared system applications.
The advantage of the lens
- Excellent infrared penetration performance:
The Ge material has an extremely high penetration rate in the thermal infrared band. And it is a good choice for thermal imaging equipment.
- High durability:
Germanium has excellent mechanical strength and oxidation resistance.
- High stability:
The lens can maintain optical performance even in high temperatures and bad environments. Therefore, people often choose the Ge infrared lens in infrared system applications.
- Compatible with AR/DLC coatings:
People can choose AR or other coating. Because this can further enhance the anti-reflection property or surface hardness.
How to choose the appropriate germanium infrared lens?
People can choose the lens according to the following needs:
- Lens diameter and focal length
- Working wavelength range
- Surface quality
- Center deviation and light aperture size
- Is coating (such as AR or DLC) required?
- Does it meet the requirements for special working environments (such as high temperature, corrosion, etc.)?
Chenyu selects high-quality germanium materials and employs the most advanced manufacturing techniques to produce better-quality germanium infrared lenses for you.
