Barium Fluoride - BaF2
Barium Fluoride is grown by vacuum Stockbarger technique in
diameters up to 240 mm. The material is susceptible to thermal
shock. It is transparent in the wide spectrum band. Available in
both optical and scintillator grades. The scintillator grade
material has typical absorbance of 0.2 at 190 nm (transmissivity
of 0.013mm-1) through a 60 mm path length, and 0.08 at 300 nm (transmissivity
of 0.015mm-1) Applications include windows, lenses of special
types of objectives, mirror substrate in optical systems
operating in UV and IR spectrum band. Diameters up to 240 mm for
transmission to 12.5 um.

Available up to 120 mm diameter polished for windows and lens. Zinc Selenide - ZnSe (CVD)
Zinc Selenide is chemically inert, non-hygroscopic, highly pure,
theoretically dense and easily machined. It has extremely low
bulk losses due to absorption and scatter, has a high resistance
to thermal shock and is stable in virtually all environments. It
is available in circular blanks and sheet material are available
in stock to meet your most urgent delivery requirements. Custom
diameters, rectangles, CNC-profiled blanks, generated lens
blanks, prisms, and near-net shape domes can also be made to
your specifications.
