Overview: Single Synthetic Crystal Quartz is grown by hydrothermal method in autoclaves. It has trigonal
crystal structure with right-handed or left-handed modification.
Quartz crystals have low stress birefringence and high refractive
index homogeneity. The optical transmission range of crystal quartz
is 0.2-2.5microns. Due to its piezoelectric properties, low thermal
expansion, good mechanical parameters and excellent optical
characteristics, crystal quartz is widely used in electronics,
precision and laser optics, fiber communications, X-ray optics,
pressure sensors and etc. General Specifications Of Crystal Quartz: Dimension Tolerance | ±0.1mm | Optical Axis Orientation | ±0.5° | Surface Quality | 20/10 | Clear Aperture | >90% | Flatness | <λ/8@633nm | Transmitted Wavefront Distortion | <λ/10@633nm | Parallelism | Up to 1 arc second | Coating | Upon Request |
