Product Introduction
German (Ge) single crystals have a transmission spectrum ranging from 2 to 12 µm and are widely used as an infrared optical material due to their high hardness, excellent thermal conductivity, and insolubility in water. They are extensively employed in infrared imaging systems and infrared spectrometer setups. Germanium single crystals also exhibit superior mechanical properties and thermal performance, with minimal absorption at 10.6 µm—making them ideal for CO 2 The ideal material for laser lenses, windows, and output coupling mirrors—germanium (Ge) single crystals—is also used as the substrate material for a variety of infrared filters.
