Details:

Silicon lenses are popular for many applications in the IR. They are typically used for imaging applications in the 3-5 μ m region of the spectrum, making them excellent for security and military applications. They can also be used to collimate infrared lasers. These lenses are coated with a BBAR coating that provides 98% transmission in the 3-5 μ m spectral range.
