Product Details

Diffraction Limited Performance
Variety of Coating Options
Full Prescription Data Available
Due to material supply chain disruptions with germanium, there may be increased lead times and price changes on our germanium products. For more information, please contact our customer service team.
Edmund Optics has limited remaining inventory of this part number and no raw material available to supply more once this is depleted. Please contact our Product Support Engineers to help with an alternate solution for your needs. Customer Service can provide you the latest price and availability.

TECHSPEC® Germanium Infrared (IR) Aspheric Lenses provide diffraction-limited focusing performance over a broad spectral range in the Mid and Long Wave infrared regions. Ideal for monochromatic light sources, such as quantum cascade lasers, these lenses offer a high-performance alternative to standard plano-convex lenses.
The lenses are available in a 12.5, 25, or 50mm diameter. TECHSPEC® Germanium Infrared (IR) Aspheric Lenses are available uncoated, or with BBAR coating options.

Uncoated germanium has transmission of <50%, so custom anti-reflection (AR) coatings should be considered if specifying an uncoated lens. Each BBAR coated lens offers >95% transmission, making it ideal for integration into a variety of OEM applications. For custom design or coating options, please contact our Sales Department.

Special Handling

Germanium Optics Handling and Cleaning Guidelines

Germanium optics require special handling and cleaning procedures. Always wear gloves during handling to prevent contamination, and wash hands afterward. Avoid contact between Germanium dust and the eyes, skin, or clothing. When not in use, store optics sealed and covered at temperatures between 20°C and 25°C. Do not expose them to temperatures exceeding 100°C when in use.

Handling Guidelines

Always wear gloves to prevent damage from skin oils.
If Germanium dust is present, take the following precautions:
- Wear safety glasses to protect eyes.
- Use a dust mask or face mask to avoid inhalation.
- Wear gloves to prevent skin contact.
Maintain storage temperature between 20°C and 25°C with humidity below 30%.
Wrap Germanium optics in a lens cloth or pouch and seal in a container when not in use.
Germanium is brittle and heavy — always place it on soft surfaces and avoid dropping it.
