Broad IR Transmission Range: Germanium windows provide excellent transmission in the 2 µm to 14 µm range, making them ideal for MWIR and LWIR applications.

Low Dispersion: The low optical dispersion of Germanium ensures minimal distortion and accurate transmission of IR signals.

Ruggedness: Germanium is more rugged compared to other IR materials, providing durability and reliability in demanding environments.

Chemical Inertness: High chemical inertness makes Germanium windows resistant to harsh chemical environments.

High Refractive Index: With a high refractive index, AR coatings are necessary to achieve high transmission efficiency.

Applications: Thermal cameras, IR imaging, long-pass filters, protective windows, etc.
