Cut quartz - Import export

Knight Optical can offer Z-Cut Quartz Windows for use in the security industry. We supply a range of Z-Cut Quartz windows for a range of applications – all individually QA checked and metrology tested for quality to ensure parts meet customers’ specifications. What’s more, our Z-Cut Quartz Windows are supplied in a range of sizes & shapes with custom coatings tailored to meet your individual applications. We supply precision optical components to customers within the security industry. Z-Cut Quartz windows can be used in the terahertz region for non-invasive scanning of individuals. These types of scans can detect objects such as weapons & are used in airports and other high-security locations. Quartz is a birefringent material, which affects the polarisation of light passing through it, and is cut specifically along the Z-axis to maintain polarisation. Z-Cut Quartz is used in applications where quartz is an ideal material; yet changes to polarisation are required Read PDF for more...

Maximum stability in demanding applications The standard AT-cut, 1 in. (25.4 mm) diameter crystal, pioneered by INFICON, is used primarily in research applications with the INFICON RQCM (Research Quartz Crystal Microbalance). These research crystals are designed for use with INFICON rugged, easy to use crystal holders and are used for in-situ monitoring of deposited films or liquids. Geometry AT-cut quartz has superior mechanical and piezoelectric properties. The 1 in. (25.4 mm) diameter allows optimal distance between the active area of the crystal and the mounting o-ring. This improves the overall stability of the crystal by reducing the frequency changes due to mounting stress. Finish INFICON 1 in. (25.4 mm) research crystals are available with either an unpolished or polished finish. Polished crystals allow for a good correlation between theory and measurement during liquid immersion experiments. Electrode Material INFICON 1 in. (25.4 mm) research crystals are available...
