Application

The Barium fluoride crystal optic disc, measuring 13mm x 1mm and polished on both sides, is designed for applications requiring a high degree of optical clarity and precise transmission across a broad spectral range. These discs serve as vital components in optical systems, particularly in spectroscopy where their ability to transmit across the passive infrared band (8 to 14 μm) proves invaluable. The unique properties of Barium fluoride, being slightly soluble in water but soluble in ethanol and methanol, combined with its resistance to high temperatures and chemical stability, make it an excellent choice for use as a viewport window in thermography. Its application extends to various fields including electronics, where it is used in dry-film lubricants, and in other optical applications that require robust materials with excellent transmission characteristics, such as in the production of lenses and other spectroscopic components.
