ABSTRACT:
An infrared detection system is described that embodies an improved glass window for transmitting infrared radiation to a heat sensitive detection element in the system. The window is produced from a glass consisting essentially, in percent by weight on an oxide basis, of 25-50% GeO.sub.2, 10-50% La.sub.2 O.sub.3 5-50% Ta.sub.2 O.sub.5 and 2-20% ZnO. Such glasses are hard and abrasion resistant, have moderate coefficients of thermal expansion and have a substantial transmission for infrared radiation in the wavelength range of five to six microns.
