Single Crystal Sapphire
Fully transparent, with highly uniform optical and mechanical properties
The chemical composition of single crystal sapphire is α-alumina, which is transparent, colorless, high hardness, small thermal expansion, acid and alkali corrosion resistance, and not easily corroded by chemical substances.
Advantages
- High hardness and wear resistance
- High light transmittance
- Biocompatible
- High resistance to most acids, bases and solvents
- Low thermal expansion coefficient (8×10⁻⁶/K)
- High electrical insulation
Applications
- Lenses, windows, prisms, laser cavity windows
- Watch mirrors, mobile phone protective covers
- Semiconductor substrates and bases
- Ultra-high vacuum components
- Precision mechanical components
- Light guide display windows
- Medical endoscope windows, ultrasound probe protection windows
- Fluid Control Water Valve Disc
