Magnesium Fluoride or MgF2is grown by vacuum Stockbarger technique in ingots approximately 160mm in diameter. It is a positive birefringent crystal with high optical transmittance from the vacuum ultraviolet to the infrared spectrum region. It is resistant to mechanical and thermal shock, to radiation, and is chemistry stable.
MgF2 transmits well into the VUV region at the hydrogen Lyman-alpha line (121nm) and beyond. It is also used for most UV optics and is excellent for eximer laser application.
Purity: 99.99%
Form: white limpidity crystal
