BaF2 Optical Crystals

BaF2optical crystalsBaF2 (Barium Fluoride) is used forwindows,Website:http://www.meta-laser.com, lenses and prisms, particularly when transmission into the ultraviolet is desired. The transmission range of BaF2 is from 0.2 to 14µm. Transmission in the VUV is degraded by prolonged exposure to moist atmosphere, but it is not significantly degraded by exposure to high energy radiation. Barium Fluoride is the most resistant fluoride to high energy radiation but does not have VUV transmission of other types. Barium Fluoride is suitable for applications in the IR band (8 to 14 µm) and is often used
