    Packaging windows are critical components for the FPA detectors in thermal imaging cameras, the central apertures of these packaging windows serve as infrared filters and transmit the IR radiation in selection. The metallic coatings around the edges of windows allow welding and packaging, Germanium (Ge) and Silicon (Si) are often used as the substrate materials. High-quality metallic coatings are wrapped on the edge of the windows, and several kinds of filtering coatings are available: broadband AR coating, longpass filtering coating, and bandpass filtering. Custom windows are available upon your request.
