  • Large Selection of Sizes
  • Available Uncoated, MgF2, or VIS-NIR Anti-Reflection (AR) Coated
  • Custom Sizes Available for Volume OEM Requirements

TECHSPEC® B270 Windows offer a high transmission from the visible to the near-infrared (NIR). They have a similar refractive index to N-BK7 while being more cost-effective. These windows are often used as a protective element due to their high solarization stability and chemical resistance, making them ideal for standard window applications. TECHSPEC® B270 Windows are available either uncoated or coated with a MgF2 or VIS-NIR Anti-Reflection (AR) Coating. Both circular and square options are offered in various sizes, and custom sizes and coatings are available for OEM applications.
