Fused Silica Domes
Fused Silica Domes are a good choice in Solar Instruments. It includes ultraviolet fused silica and infrared fused silica.
UV silica has a good transmittance from 180nm to 2650 nm, then it is a good choice for protected UV Radiometers.
For the IR silica, it has broadband transmission from 200nm to 3600nm, it can keep the pyranometer has a wider spectral range, improved directional response, and reduced thermal offsets.
And Fused Silica mechanical properties it better than N-BK7, Borosilicate. Some high-quality deep-sea housings are made of fused silica domes, which have wide-angle and can be protective the deep-sea camera. Contact us.
The main application of Fused Silica Optics
Compared to other types of glass, fused silica transmits UV spectrum waves more effectively and is therefore commonly used in the manufacture of lenses and optics for the UV spectrum. Its low coefficient of thermal expansion makes it ideal for precision mirror substrates, often used in semiconductor manufacturing and laboratory equipment.
Other common applications include:
Windows for manned spacecraft, debris shields, etc
High Energy Laser Vacuum Window
Medical and Metrology Precision Instruments
Projection Masks for Lithography
First surface mirrors, such as mirrors in telescopes
Laser window
Glass wafers for photonic chips
