Saint-Gobain Puropsil® B Infrared Grade Low [OH] Optical Fused Quartz
Subcategory: Glass; Oxide, Silicon; Oxide
Material Notes: Puropsil® B optical infrared fused quartz is manufactured from naturally occurring quartz crystal using a plasma process to ensure a low OH. It has excellent IR transmission with a useful IR transmission up to 3500 nm. Available as ingot, discs, plates, and components with machined or polished surface finish. General properties of Fused Silica and Fused quartz: A very wide transmission range from UV to near IR; extremely high optical transmission, excellent resistance to high power laser energy, excellent homogeneity, high temperature resistance, very low thermal expansion (resistance to thermal shock), and chemical inertness. General uses for optical quartz are microlithography optical systems, optical fibers, photomasks, laser optics, LCD displays, light guides, optical, IR , and UV windows, spectrophotometer cells, slides, optical pyrometers, and lamp bodies/components.
