Product Description
Optical constants of MgF2 (Magnesium fluoride) Dodge 1984: n(o) 0.2-7.0 µm. Magnesium fluoride is used in ceramics, optical lenses, glass manufacturing, and single crystals for polarizing prisms. Magnesium Fluoride Optical Windows are transparent over a very wide 120 nm to 8 µm spectral range. Magnesium Fluoride-containing coatings were prepared on biodegradable Mg-based metals through hydrofluoric acid-involving chemical conversion. The compound is a white crystalline salt and is transparent. Magnesium Fluoride transmits well into the VUV region to the hydrogen. MgF2 is used mostly for UV optics and mMgF2 is excellent for excimer laser.
