for harsh environments and applications where there is constant exposure to the elements.
Our germanium lenses have a high refractive index—the highest refractive index among readily available IR transmitters. It also
exhibits minimal chromatic aberration due to low dispersion. Because of these properties, Ge lenses are ideal for use in infrared
(FLIR and FTIR) field applications. Other applications include thermal imaging systems and precision analytic instruments which
may be used in harsh environments.
