Zero Expansion Glass
Zero-expansion glass ceramics are typically produced through the controlled crystallization of borosilicate glasses, with essential components being Li2O, Al2O3, and SiO2. With an exceptionally low coefficient of thermal expansion, this material is indispensable in applications demanding extraordinary precision and thermal stability, notably in optics, precision instruments, and scientific instruments.
SiC
Silicon carbide (SiC) is highly regarded in the field of optics due to its exceptional thermal conductivity, high resistance to oxidation, chemical inertness, and superior mechanical strength. The applications of SiC in optics encompass the manufacturing of high-performance laser systems, optical reflectors, windows, and other components.
Optical Crystals
Optical crystals, characterized by their ordered lattice structure, encompass materials like zinc sulfide, zinc selenide, calcium fluoride, and more. In optical systems, optical crystals are widely used for superb transparency, low absorptivity, minimal dispersion, and excellent transmittance across various wavelengths. Their exceptional attributes make them ideal for crafting high-precision lenses, optical filters, laser devices, and more.
Fused Quartz
It has good transparency and stable mechanical properties, making it a common choice for manufacturing transparent windows, lenses, and other optical components. Optical quartz glass is glassy silica (SiO2) made from pure crystal, also known as high-purity quartz glass.
