Customized Synthetic Sapphire Optical Window With Chamfering Edge
Sapphire has a melting point of 2040 degrees C, Mohs (Mohs) hardness scale of up to 9, refractive index of 1.76 to 1.78. Without impurities, sapphire can be a superior optical window material because it is clear and transparent throughout the visible light range, even as far away as ultraviolet and infrared light. With such characteristics, it's no wonder sapphire has ever been a precious gem. These same properties also make sapphire attractive for non-precious applications, and today's state-of-the-art synthetic crystal growth and processing technologies are driving the increasing demand for this material.
The window is a flat plate with two parallel or wedge-shaped surfaces, and is usually used as a protective window for electronic sensors or external environment detectors. The window does not change the magnification of the system. Substrate materials include various sapphire, optical glass, K9, ultraviolet fused silica, infrared fused silica, and calcium fluoride (CaF2), magnesium fluoride (MgF2), zinc selenide (ZnSe), germanium (Ge), silicon (Si) And other crystal materials, and provide various optical coatings such as anti-reflection coatings, high-reflection coatings, spectroscopic coatings, and metal coatings. Broadband antireflection coatings can be used in the ultraviolet, visible, near-infrared and mid-infrared bands.
Single crystal sapphire windows are very suitable for demanding applications (such as laser systems) because of their extremely high surface hardness, high thermal conductivity, high dielectric constant, and resistance to chemical acids and alkalis. Since the hardness of sapphire is second only to diamond, and its structural strength is very high, the thickness of the sapphire window made by enhanced light transmittance is thinner than that of the general high-dielectric window. In terms of chemistry, sapphire is a single crystal of aluminum oxide (Al2O3), which is very suitable for transmission between 0.2 and 5.5 μm. In general optical applications, the basic needs of customers can be met without coating. Our products can also be coated, silk-screened or special heat treated according to customer needs to meet the special needs of customers.
