Germanium Dioxide (GeO2) Powder


Introduction
Germanium dioxide's refractive index (1.7) and optical dispersion properties make it useful as an optical material for wide-angle lenses and in optical microscope objective lenses. It is transparent in infrared spectrum. Germanium Dioxide (GeO2) can be manufactured into IR windows and lenses, used for night-vision technology in the military, luxury vehicles, and thermographic cameras.
