Abstract: SiC Optical Lens

SiC optical lenses are precision-engineered components made from advanced silicon carbide (SiC) material, designed to deliver exceptional performance in harsh and demanding environments. Compared to traditional optical materials like quartz or calcium fluoride, SiC exhibits superior hardness, thermal stability, and corrosion resistance, making it ideal for high-power laser systems, semiconductor manufacturing, aerospace applications, and scientific research.

Core Advantages​​:

• ​​High-Temperature Resistance​​: Operates stably at temperatures exceeding 300°C without thermal distortion.
• ​​Exceptional Hardness​​: Mohs hardness of 9.2-9.3 (second only to diamond), providing outstanding scratch resistance.
• ​​Low Thermal Expansion​​: Coefficient of thermal expansion as low as 1-3×10⁻⁶/K, ensuring dimensional stability under rapid temperature changes.
• ​​Broad Spectral Transmission​​: High transmittance from ultraviolet (200nm) to mid-infrared (10μm).
