« on: September 03, 2011, 05:17:47 PM »
hi every body
i've broken the last 2 undrilled KBr windows  of the sealed cells , i dont know what to do then i've tried to use two drilled window but the liquid leaked from the cell . my manager said that i can use undrilled CsI instead of KBr with a drilled KBr !!!!!!!!
is there any wrong thing when using two windows of  different materials (KBr , CsI)??
thanks in advance

I believe it is OK to use different windows as long as the compatible with you samples and transparent in the IR region of interest.
