MgF2 or Magnesium Fluoride is positive uni-axial crystal with a very high optical transmittance from the vacuum UV to IR. It is regularly used for optical elements where extreme ruggedness and durability is required. It also has a large resistance to mechanical and thermal shock, to optical radiation, and is chemically stable, making it a very useful materials for UV and IR optics.
Descriptions:
MgF2 or Magnesium Fluoride is positive uni-axial crystal with a very high optical transmittance from the vacuum UV to IR. It is regularly used for optical elements where extreme ruggedness and durability is required.
Main application:
1) VUV , UV ,IR optical systems
2) UV photomultiplier tubes
3) Excimer lasers
4) Optical fiber communications industry
Advantages:
1) High optical transmittance from the vacuum ultraviolet to the infrared spectrum region(0.12~8.5μm).
2) Resistance to mechanical , thermal shock and radiation
3) Chemically stable
4) A positive birefringent crystal
5) Used for Optical prisms, lenses, wedges, windows, other optical components etc
Why Choose HGO ?
HG OPTRONICS.,INC. has the ability to supply high quality MgF2 Magnesium Fluoride Crystal in mass production quantity. Material from HGO features with high transmittance in VUV(>70%) and UV wavelength ranges. Standard size for VUV windows are Dia.8 and Dia.6 with 1mm thickness.
HGO offer both a-cut (or [100] cut) MgF2 windows for the maximum birefringence and c-cut (or cut along the optical axis) with the minimum birefringence. Random-cut (cut along a random axis) MgF2 windows are also available. The thickness can be made as thin as 0.1mm. In addition, we can also produce other types of window crystals like YAG crystals, BaF2,LiF Crystals, etc.
HGO has a mass-production line for MgF2 crystals and have wide experiences and strong ability to supply such crystals with large quantity and in very short delivery time.
