硒化鋅（ZnSe）ATR棱鏡

ZnSe 在紅外元器件窗片透鏡以及光譜分析ATR 棱鏡領域有著廣泛的應用。硒化鋅(Zinc Selenide)對于CO₂激光器的元器件也是一種良好的選擇。在二氧化碳激光器工作的波段10.6 microns附近有著良好的透射率。硒化鋅材料是一種黃色透明的多晶材料， 結晶顆粒大小約為70μm， 透光范圍0.5-15μm。由化學氣相沉積(CVD)方法合成的基本不存在雜質吸收， 散射損失極低。由于對10.6μm波長光的吸收很小， 因此成為制作高功率CO₂激光器系統中光學器件的**材料。此外在其整個透光波段內， 也是在不同光學系統中所普遍使用的材料。

硒化鋅材料對熱沖擊具有很高的承受能力， 使它成為高功率CO₂激光器系統中的**光學材料。硬度只是多光譜級ZnS的2/3， 材質較軟易產生劃痕， 而且材料折射率較大， 所以需要在其表面鍍制高硬度減反射膜來加以保護并獲得較高的透過率。在其常用光譜范圍內， 散射很低。在用做高功率激光器件時， 需要嚴格控制材料的體吸收和內部結構缺陷， 并采用*小破壞程度的拋光技術和**光學質量的鍍膜工藝。

廣泛應用于激光，醫學，天文學和紅外夜視等領域中。

關于晶體切割：

During Chemical Vapour Deposition the small crystallite grains align with thedirection of growth， and are

normal to the thickness of the sheet produced. For windows of normal thickness and aspect ratios the alignmentof the grain therefore is rarely a problem as they are cut from the grown sheet such that within an optical windowthe grains align perpendicular to the surfaces. This is optimum orientation for lowest internal absorption andscatter.

With prisms， the cutting direction requires more consideration. It isrecommended that the thickness of the stripmaterial corresponds to the apex height of the prism. This ensures optimum crystallite orientation for most usual

prism applications.

For typical 45° prisms the most obvious use of material is shown in (A) but it

should be noted that this is not the optimum orientation.

The best choice is (B) and it also permitsa higher limit on prism size orconverselyallows thinner stock to be used. There iswaste at the ends of the strip but this issmall and so it may not be quite aseconomic as (A).

Cutting in direction (C) where the entire light beam runs at 90° to the grain

structure should be avoided completely if at all possible.Note that maximum available thickness of ZnSe and ZnS (FLIR) is approximately 60mm. Maximum availablethickness of ZnS Cleartran is approximately 30mm
