Best Design Practices

As with any optical product, take special care when handling the OPT4001-Q1. The optical surface of the device must be kept clean for the best performance, both when prototyping with the device and during mass production manufacturing procedures. Keep the optical surface clean of fingerprints, dust, and other optical-inhibiting contaminants. Use a properly-sized vacuum manipulation tool to handle the device.

If the optical surface of the device requires cleaning, then use a few gentle brushes with a soft swab of deionized water or isopropyl alcohol. Avoid potentially abrasive cleaning and manipulating tools and excessive force that can scratch the optical surface.

If the OPT4001-Q1 performance is diminished in any way, then inspect the optical surface for dirt, scratches, or other optical artifacts.
