Product Description

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
