Sapphire Tube Unpolished Small Size Al2O3 Glass Tube
The following are the characteristics of sapphire tube
1.Hardness and durability: Just like other sapphire components, sapphire tubes are extremely hard and resistant to scratching, abrasion and wear.
2.Optical clarity: Sapphire tubes can be optically transparent and can be used for inspection, visual processes, or light transmission through the tube.
3.Operating temperature: 1950°C.
4.High temperature resistance: Sapphire tubes retain their strength and transparency even under high temperature conditions, making them suitable for processes involving high temperatures.
5.Thermal shock resistance: Unlike some materials, sapphire tubes can withstand rapid temperature changes without cracking.
Sapphire tube has several applications
1. Optical fiber communication: as an optical fiber interface and optical coupling element.
2. Laser device: used for optical transmission of lasers.
3. Optical detection: optical window as an optical detector.
4. Optoelectronic integration: Build optical guided wave channel of photoelectric integrated circuit.
5. Optical imaging: Used in display equipment, camera and other optical systems.
Sapphire is slightly birefringent. The high-hardness sapphire crystal has a refractive index of 1.75 and grows to a random orientation, so the universal infrared window is usually cut in a random manner. For specific applications with birefringence problems, the selection directions are: C-plane, A-plane and R-plane.
Our factory has advanced production equipment and technical team, which can customize various specifications, thicknesses and shapes of sapphire tube according to customers' specific requirements.
