Optics and photonics — Optical materials and components — Characterization of optical materials used in the infrared spectral range from 0,78 µm to 25 µm

Scope

This document provides guidelines for the description of data sheets for infrared materials. It specifies the nomenclature and the properties of infrared materials which are reported on such data sheets. These data sheets do not necessarily contain information on every property identified in this document.
This document also specifies the parameters needed to characterize optical materials intended for use in the infrared spectral range from 0,78 µm to 25 µm and provides various methods to be used for measuring these parameters.
This document is applicable only to materials used in the manufacture of passive optical components. The properties of materials used in active applications (e.g. optoelectronics) are not taken into account.
Materials specified in this document can also transmit in other spectral domains (microwaves, visible or ultraviolet).
