More info

Lithium Fluoride (LiF) Crystal Substrate is a highly transparent material with exceptional transmission in the deep ultraviolet (DUV), visible, and infrared ranges. Its low refractive index and high resistance to radiation make it ideal for optical components such as UV windows, lenses, and prisms. LiF is also used as a substrate for thin-film coatings and in X-ray optics due to its wide bandgap and high optical quality. However, LiF is sensitive to moisture and requires proper storage to maintain its properties. With its outstanding optical performance, LiF Crystal Substrate is essential for scientific, industrial, and optical applications. Heeger Materials provides high-quality Lithium Fluoride Crystal Substrate for various optical and research needs.
