Whether for lithography, vision correction, industrial applications, or other excimer laser applications, performance and "up time" are critically dependent on fluoride optical quality. Corning has more than 50 years of fluoride crystal manufacturing experience.
Calcium fluoride and magnesium fluoride can be machined with standard diamond tools and water-based coolants using aluminum oxide, chromic oxide, or diamond-based polishing powders with either pitch or cloth laps.
