– MgF2
 |
MgF2 is the most resistant fluoride material to degradation by atmospheric moisture, also at higher temperatures. Its hardness, ruggedness and resistance to mechanical and thermal shock is useful for laser windows. MgF2 has a low birefringence, and the windows are fabricated with the optic axis a symmetry axis, minimizing the birefringence effect (c-cut). MgF2 substrates, supplied by LASEROPTIK, are very resistant to F-center formation due to its low O2-contamination, which is also evidenced by the high VUV transmission. |
