Frequently Asked Questions

The properties of SQ fused silica rods include absence of inclusions and bubbles, high OH/H2 content, excellent UV transmittance, very low fluorescence, high laser durability, low residual stress, very low thermal expansion coefficient, and high thermal stability.

The properties of j-plasil fused silica rods include undoped fused silica with high homogeneity, low OH content, diameter of 25 to 80 mm, rod length of 200 to 800 mm, and cylinder faces that are fire polished or lapped.

Undoped silica rods are used for efficient manufacturing of optical components such as lenses, mirrors, and plates, as well as for the production of special pre-forms.

BDSR Boron-doped fused silica rods are used for the production of polarization maintaining (PM) fibers in the so-called Panda design.

Various doping materials such as Germanium, Fluorine, and Boron are offered for specific applications.
