Schott IRC-1 Zinc Sulfide Broadband Infrared Ceramic
Categories:	Ceramic; Sulfide/Chalcogenide
Material Notes:	Zinc Sulfide is suitable material for broadband infrared windows, domes and optics. No other material offers this combination of optical properties and environmental resistance. SCHOTT has developed a ceramic process to produce polycrystalline Zinc Sulfide, IRC-1. IRC-1 has significantly improved optical and mechanical performance compared to CVD processed material. IRC-1 is the material of choice for mid and long wave IR applications Advantages: IRC-1 performs with high transmission between 3 – 12 µm Fine grained and homogenous microstructures Higher Strength and Hardness Lower cost finishing Improved results from deterministic finishing Ceramic process allows the production of near net shape dome blanks and curved window blanks Reduces processing time and associated costs Reduces production complexity Applications: Thermal Imaging Systems Thermography Predictive Maintenance Automotive Safety Systems Vandal Proof Surveillance and Imaging Force Protection Intrinsically Safe IR Imaging Systems Machine Vision systems Process Control Robotic Manufacturing: UAV Imaging Information provided by SCHOTT.
