Linde North America, Inc. Neon 22

Chemical Purity: ≥99.99% Isotopic Enrichment: ≥99 atom% Neon has three stable isotopes, Ne-20, Ne-21, Ne-22. Ne-20 and Ne-22 are the principle isotopes found in Helium-Neon laser applications. One of a number of critical applications is the use of ring lasers found in commercial, space and military guidance, navigation and control systems. The Ring Laser Gyros (RLG) can be used as the stable elements (for one degree of freedom each) in an inertial guidance system. The advantage of using a RLG is that there are no moving parts. Compared to the conventional spinning gyro, this means there is no friction, which in turn means there will be no inherent drift terms. Additionally, the entire unit is compact, lightweight and virtually indestructible, meaning it can be used in aircraft.
