Single Crystal Silicon

Single Crystal Silicon exhibits a transmission range of 1.2 to 8 microns (uncoated). However, it demonstrates a strong absorption band at 9 microns, making it particularly suitable for applications within the 3-5 micron range. Beyond this, floating zone silicon can be utilized. This material offers numerous advantages, including its affordability, making it an excellent choice for weight-sensitive applications. Furthermore, monocrystalline silicon possesses a lower density, greater hardness, and improved durability compared to germanium, rendering it less prone to brittleness. Consequently, it finds extensive application in various industries such as the military, imaging, scientific research, as well as optical coating substrates.

Advantages of Silicon windows

  • Silicon windows have a low density of 2.329 g/cm3, ideal for weight-sensitive applications. In addition, silicon is not as brittle as germanium and zinc selenide, and has better thermal stability.
  • Since silicon has a cubic crystal structure, it does not exhibit birefringence. Birefringence degrades infrared imaging performance, so it is important to choose a non-birefringent material.

FAQ

What Are The Main Types Of Glass Substrates?

The main types of glass substrates include soda-lime glass, sapphire, boroaluminosilicate glass, optical quartz glass, K9 glass, CaF2 substrate, magnesium fluoride crystal substrate, and silicon.

What Does Silicon Do For Windows?

Silicone sealant products enable the making of flexible joints that bond construction materials solidly and protect windows, doors and the facades to which they are fastened, to adjust flexibly to fluctuations of size and pressure brought on by changes in temperature, humidity, wind and other environmental conditions.

What Happens When Silicon Is Exposed To Air?

A simple form of thermal oxidation even takes place at room temperature, if silicon is exposed to an oxygen or air ambient. There, a thin native oxide layer with 0.5-1nm will form on the surface rapidly.

What Is The Difference Between Silicon And Glass?

Silicon wafers typically break by cleaving along crystal- lographic planes. Glass breaks by brittle fracture. However, both substrates are considered highly brittle materials. This means for both materials their strength depends on the pres- ence of flaws (micro-cracks, etch pits, etc.)

What Is Optical Glass Used For?

Due to its exceptional level of clarity and durability, optical glass is the most commonly used material for a wide variety of optical applications, including: Lenses for analytical and medical equipment. Photographic lenses. Windows for optical systems and instruments.

What Is Soda-lime Glass Used For?

Soda-lime glass is widely used as an insulating substrate for thin and thick film deposition in various applications due to its uniform thickness and exceptionally flat surfaces.

What Is The Composition Of Optical Glass?

About 95% of all glasses are of the "soda-lime" type, containing silicon dioxide (silica), Na2O (soda), and CaO (lime). Crown glass is a soda-lime-silica composite.

What Are The Advantages Of Using Sapphire Substrates?

Sapphire substrates offer unparalleled chemical, optical, and physical properties. They are highly resistant to thermal shocks, high temperatures, sand erosion, and water, making them ideal for demanding applications.

What Are The Most Common Optical Glasses?

The most common optical glasses for the IR spectrum are calcium fluoride, fused silica, germanium, magnesium fluoride, potassium bromide, sapphire, silicon, sodium chloride, zinc selenide, and zinc sulfide.

Why Is Boroaluminosilicate Glass Suitable For Laboratory Glassware And Cooking Utensils?

Boroaluminosilicate glass is highly resistant to thermal expansion, making it suitable for applications that require resistance to temperature changes, such as laboratory glassware and cooking utensils.

What Are The Applications Of Optical Quartz Glass Sheets?

Optical quartz glass sheets are used for precise light manipulation in various fields including telecommunications, astronomy, and optical technology due to their exceptional clarity and tailored refractive properties.

What Makes K9 Glass Special?

K9 glass, also known as K9 crystal, is a type of optical borosilicate crown glass renowned for its exceptional optical properties, making it suitable for various optical applications.

What Is A CaF2 Window Used For?

A CaF2 window is an optical window made of crystalline calcium fluoride. These windows are versatile, environmentally stable, and resistant to laser damage, making them suitable for a wide range of optical applications.

What Are The Properties Of Magnesium Fluoride Crystal Substrates?

Magnesium fluoride (MgF2) is a tetragonal crystal that exhibits anisotropy, making it imperative to treat it as a single crystal when engaging in precision imaging and signal transmission.

What Is Silicon Used For In The Near-infrared Range?

Silicon (Si) is widely regarded as one of the most durable mineral and optical materials for applications in the near-infrared (NIR) range, approximately 1 μm to 6 μm.

What Are Glass Vibration Beads Used For In Laboratories?

Glass vibration beads, commonly used in laboratory settings, are transparent glass balls designed to prevent zeolite formation, making them useful in various experimental setups.
