ISP Optics Barium Fluoride (BaF2) Windows provide excellent transmission from 0.2- 12μm without the need for an Anti-Reflection (AR) coating due to its low index of refraction. Barium Fluoride has similar physical properties to Calcium Fluoride, but features higher resistance to high-energy radiation. This makes Barium Fluoride ideal for vacuum UV (VUV) applications such as thermography or laser spectroscopy where high radiation resistance is required. ISP Optics Barium Fluoride (BaF2) Windows can be used up to 800°C in a dry environment, but prolonged exposure to moisture can degrade transmission in the ultraviolet range.
Note: These optical windows are very sensitive to thermal shock.
