ZnS MultiSpectral is Infrared's zinc sulfide materialwith minimal scatter and high transmission
characteristics from 0.4 to 12 microns. This material is particularly well suited for high-performance
common aperture systems that must perform across a broad wavelength spectrum.We offer ZnS MS material
to exacting specifications of dimensional shape and tolerances. ZnS material is also available in random
sizes and shapes for use as evaporative source material.
