Product Information
|
Calcium fluoride crystals grown from purest (synthetic) raw material are required for illumination and projection optics in 248 nm, 193 nm and 193 nm immersion micro / lithography technologies and laser applications.
Benefits
Calcium fluoride crystals complete the application range of optical materials from VUV to IR with very good transmission ranging from 130 nm to 9 µm due to its
- High projection optic quality
- High production volume
- High purity
- High laser durability
- High refractive index homogeneity
- Excellent UV transmittance
- Low stress birefringence
|
Key Applications
|
The very high laser damage threshold of calcium fluoride makes it the first choice material for:
- Excimer laser optics
- Beam delivery
- Illumination systems operating at 45nm node
- Optical systems in lithography, astronomy, photography, HDTV zoom lenses, microscopy
- Sensors (especially IR-spectrum)
- Spectrometers
- Medical lasers
|
Forms of Supply
|
SCHOTT Lithotec offers calcium fluoride components and blanks with different crystal orientations (<111>, <100>, random or others on request) along with different surface qualities (raw, cut, ground or polished), depending on the individual requirements.
|
Specifications
|
SCHOTT Lithotec's expertise allows fabrication of CaF2 blanks in diameters up to 350 mm and with thicknesses exceeding 100 mm and highest transmission from 130 nm to 9 ìm (depending on sample thickness).
|
Quality Assurance
|
There is 100% control of internal quality, including examinations of stress birefringence, striae, bubbles and inclusions, scattering, laser durability and transmittance.
