Barium fluoride (BaF2) optical window
Optolita
- most resistant to high energy radiation among fluorides listed in this catalogue
Barium fluoride is used for optical windows, prisms and lenses transmitting from ultraviolet into infrared, it can be used as infrared laser window or lens. BaF2 is recommended for use as a vacuum ultraviolet window where high radiation resistance is required.
BaF2 is less soluble than LiF, but relatively more soluble than MgF2and CaF2.
BaF2 lenses, Brewster windows, prisms are available upon request..
