    The document discusses the technical background of infrared emitters. It explains that infrared emitters are made of quartz glass because of its high transmission of infrared radiation, high thermal shock resistance, and other beneficial properties. Details are provided on the mechanical and thermal data of quartz glass, including its density, elasticity, strength values, and change in length with temperature. The transmission of fused silica quartz glass is also illustrated, showing over 90% transmission across most infrared wavelengths for samples of 1mm and 10mm thickness.
