ABSTRACT:
A device is disclosed for delivering laser radiation to a target. The device includes an elongated, hollow, tubular member having an input end and a delivery end. A window is mounted near the delivery end of the device. The window provides a seal preventing smoke and debris from contaminating the interior of the device. In the preferred embodiment, the window is formed from a crystalline material, such as diamond, which has low absorption level for laser light and excellent thermal characteristics. In addition, the thickness of the window is selected to reduce reflection losses and increase the transmission level through the window without the need for fragile antireflection coatings.
