At TC Optik, we are proud to offer high-quality BK7 windowthat are manufactured to the highest standards of precision and quality. Our bk7 optical windowsare made from high-quality borosilicate optical glass with exceptional optical transmission characteristics, and are ideal for a wide range of applications, including imaging, spectroscopy, laser optics, and more. H-K9L is the alternative for N-BK7.H-K9L (N-BK7) is a RoHS-compliant borosilicate crown glass. It provides excellent transmission in the visible and near-infrared portions of the spectrum (350 nm - 2.0 µm). It is typically chosen whenever the additional benefits of UV fused silica. H-K9L (N-BK7) is probably the most common optical glass used in high-quality optical components.

Specification of BK7 Window

Optical windows are an essential component in various optical applications such as laser systems, medical instruments, and scientific research devices. They play a crucial role in protecting optical systems from external elements and ensuring precise measurements by allowing light to pass through with minimal distortion. When it comes to optical windows, the material used is a critical factor in determining the performance and quality of the window. One such material that stands out is N-BK7 glass, which is widely recognized for its superior optical properties and versatility. In this article, we will take a closer look at N-BK7 optical windows and explore their characteristics, applications, and advantages over other materials.
