Introduction:
LiF crystals have the following exceptional properties that make it a very important optics single crystal:
(1) High optical transmittance from the vacuum ultraviolet to the infrared spectrum region(0.12-6μm) and shows excellent transmittance in the VUV regions.
(2) Used for Optical prisms, lenses, wedges, windows, other optical components,and etc.
We are the largest fluoride crystals provider in China, our LiF crystals are especially suitable for Excimer or VUV windows.
LiF Specifications:
We produce prisms, lenses, wedges, windows,wedges, and other optical components according to customers’ specifications and drawings.
