Lithium Fluoride Windows

Knight Optical can offer Lithium Fluoride Lenses for use within UV Applications. We supply a range of lithium fluoride lenses for a range of applications. All individually QA checked and metrology tested for quality to ensure parts meet customer specification. Supplied in a range of sizes and shapes with custom coatings tailored to meet your individual applications. Knight Optical supply precision optical components to customers using UV optics such as UV lasers. UV lasers are beneficial in some applications as opposed to longer wavelengths such as infrared or visible light as they do not heat the areas around the target. This allows the laser the cut materials by breaking atomic bonds, rather than melting the material. Due to the large band gap for Lithium fluoride, it’s crystals are more transmittive to short wavelength UV radiation than any other material and are ideal for use in X-Ray monochromators, as for use in VUV, UV, Vis and IR spectrums.

Knight Optical can offer Toroidal Mirrors for use within Optical Systems. We supply a range of Toroidal Mirrors for a range of applications. All individually QA checked and metrology tested for quality to ensure parts meet customer specification. Supplied in a range of sizes and shapes with custom coatings tailored to meet your individual applications. Knight Optical supply precision optical components to customers with Optical Systems. Our Toroidal Mirrors are designed to minimise astigmatism when used in off-axis geometry. They are easier to manufacture than parabolic or ellipsoidal mirrors and therefore can be made much cheap with the same quality. Toroidal mirrors are used for correction of aberration in a range of scientific instrument applications such as spectroscopes monochromators and imaging devices. For more details read PDF…

Knight Optical can offer you stock and custom lambda/10 mirrors for use in Spectromters, in a range of materials such as BK7 or equivalent, Zerodur, Quartz, UV Fused Silica and many more. Mirrors are made from low expansion glass for optimum stability to maintain the lambda/10 flatness. The mirrors help produce high quality signals and can be coated with a variety of coatings to ensure that the perfect quality image in the wavelength you require is achieved: •Enhanced aluminium 94%R for visible applications. •99.9% dielectric for laser use in visible applications. •UV aluminium for UV applications down to 180nm. •98.5% dielectric for laser use in the NIR applications. •Ion plated silver for NIR-2000nm applications. •Protected gold for 750nm to far infra-red applications Lambda/10 mirrors are used to produce a better quality signal from the mirror, resulting in a higher quality result for transmission.
