Fabricated from China's primary quartz production hub in Donghai and exported directly to Vienna. Each component conforms to strict DIN EN ISO standards, featuring drawing-based CNC tolerances, optical micro-finishing, and superior vacuum UV-NIR transmission.
For Viennese high-tech manufacturers and Austrian scientific institutions, specifying the precise vitreous silica grade is critical to prevent thermal drift, optical transmission loss, and ion-leaching contamination in extreme environments.
Synthetic quartz glass (chemically synthesized fused silica) is produced through the thermal flame hydrolysis of high-purity silicon tetrachloride (SiCl4) or organosilicon precursors (such as OMCTS) in an oxygen-hydrogen atmosphere. Unlike natural fused quartz—which is derived from beneficiated pegmatitic quartz sands mined in deposits such as Spruce Pine or Donghai—synthetic silica is built molecule-by-molecule. This gas-phase synthesis completely eliminates structural transition-metal impurities (such as iron, titanium, aluminum, sodium, and potassium), driving total metallic impurity concentrations below 0.1 parts per million (ppm).
For optical engineers in Vienna working in deep ultraviolet (DUV) laser lithography, UV-C laser processing, and single-molecule fluorescence spectroscopy, synthetic quartz offers extraordinary optical homogeneity (Class 0 striae according to ISO 10110-4) and zero bubble inclusions. When natural quartz glass is exposed to high-energy excimer laser radiation (such as KrF at 248 nm or ArF at 193 nm), trace impurities cause rapid formation of color centers (E' centers and non-bridging oxygen hole centers), resulting in severe solarization, transmission degradation, and thermal lensing. Synthetic silica, particularly high-OH varieties (>800 ppm [OH]), demonstrates virtually zero solarization under intensive UV fluence, maintaining internal transmittance exceeding 99.8% per centimeter down to 185 nm.
