MgF2 crystal substrate / window

An optical window is a fundamental optical component utilized primarily as a protective shield for electronic sensors or detectors against external environmental factors. Its purpose is to establish a barrier between the internal and external surroundings, effectively segregating the instrument's interior from the outside environment. This isolation safeguards the internal devices and ensures their protection.

Magnesium Fluoride (MgF2) is a colorless, robust, and highly durable material that exhibits birefringence. Its exceptional mechanical and thermal shock resistance allows it to be employed in demanding conditions, commonly in the form of windows. Additionally, its birefringent properties make it valuable for UV waveband polarizers. The material boasts high transmittance within a wavelength range of 0.1µm to 7µm, with over 90% transmission between 0.4µm and 5.0µm. With a hardness rating of approximately HK576, Magnesium Fluoride stands as the hardest among optical fluorides.

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.

Will MgF2 Dissolve In Water?

Magnesium fluoride is highly insoluble in water (0.0076 g/100 mL) at 18°C [151]. It can be agglomerated with water, pressed into green pellets, dewatered, and sintered at high temperatures to produce porous pellets that can be used to selectively trap technetium.

Is MgCl2 Soluble Or Insoluble?

Magnesium chloride salts are highly soluble in water and the hydrated form of magnesium chloride can be extracted from brine or sea water.

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.
