Sapphire
Sapphire (Sapphire, molecular formula Al2O3) single crystal is an excellent multifunctional material. It is resistant to high temperature, good thermal conductivity, high hardness, infrared transmission, and good chemical stability. It is also a versatile single crystal substrate material and is the substrate of choice for the current blue, violet and white light emitting diode (LED) and blue light laser (LD) industries.
Applications :
In the field of optical communication, sapphire crystals are not only used as short-wavelength active devices, but also as polarizers for passive devices
In the field of laser, sapphire is an excellent material for laser medium (such as Ti:Al2O3, Cr:Al2O3); in the field of superconductivity, sapphire crystals can be used to make high-temperature superconducting films such as Y-series, La-series, etc., and also to grow new practical MgB2 high-temperature superconducting films (usually single-crystal substrates are chemically corroded in the process of making MgB2 films)
Widely used as an important window material for high energy detection and high power powerful laser
