Silicon
Silicon is a low density, light weight material, this makes it ideal for use in optical devices where light weight components are a must.
Properties
- Transmission range of 3µm to 5µm.
- Refractive index of 3.4, so an antireflective coating is advised.
- Low density, therefore ideal for use in lightweight applications.
- Optical Characteristics.
