Home / Custom / Optical Components / Infrared Optics / ZnSe Lens ZnSe is a kind of chemically inert material with high purity, strong adaptability and easy processing. It has low optical transmission loss and good transmittance. With low absorption coefficient and high resistance to thermal shock, it is the preferred material for high-power CO2 laser optical elements.
Transmittance range covers 0.5-22 μm, perfectly compatible with mid-wave infrared (MWIR) and long-wave infrared (LWIR), with optimal performance at 10.6 μm.
Extremely low absorption coefficient (< 0.0005 cm⁻¹ @ 10.6 μm), strong thermal shock resistance, making it an ideal material for handling high-power CO₂ lasers.
Has a certain transmittance in the visible light band (pale yellow or orange), making system optical path alignment much easier than with silicon lenses (completely opaque).
Relatively soft: Mohs hardness is only 2.5~3, easily scratched during processing, unsuitable for harsh environments; Good chemical stability: Non-hygroscopic, chemically stable. Good chemical stability: Non-hygroscopic, chemically stable.
