Infrared Windows and Dome Materials

By Daniel C. Harris

This text provides a comprehensive introduction to infrared-transparent materials for windows and domes that must withstand harsh environmental conditions, such as high-speed flight or high temperature process monitoring. Introductory material in each section makes the book readable by anyone with a background in science or engineering. The current volume builds on its predecessor, Infrared Window and Dome Materials, published in 1992 as part of the SPIE Tutorial Texts series. The new monograph incorporates seven years of practical and theoretical developments in the field of infrared windows, along with additional reference information.
