Yttrium Fluoride (YF₃) is a fluorine-based compound widely used in vacuum evaporation processes for creating thin films, particularly in optical applications. YF₃ offers excellent transparency across a broad wavelength range, making it ideal for high-performance optical coatings in both UV and IR regions. It is highly stable, chemically inert, and provides durable films with low absorption.

Key Applications:

• Optical Coatings: Used in anti-reflection (AR) coatings, dielectric mirrors, beam splitters, and optical filters, especially for ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) light.
• Infrared Optics: Ideal for coatings on IR optics, including lenses and windows, due to its transparency in the IR spectrum.
• Laser Systems: Commonly applied in laser optics for high-power lasers, where durable and low-absorption coatings are necessary to handle intense laser beams.
• Space and Aerospace Applications: YF₃ is used in satellite and aerospace optical systems, providing protection and enhancing transmission in harsh environmental conditions.
• UV Protection: Often utilized for UV optical coatings, providing effective transmission management for ultraviolet-sensitive applications.

Features:

• Wide Transmission Range: Offers excellent transparency from UV (down to 200 nm) to IR (up to 10 µm), making it versatile for various optical applications.
• Low Refractive Index: Has a low refractive index (~1.5), which makes it a good material for anti-reflective coatings.
• High Chemical Stability: YF₃ is chemically inert, ensuring long-lasting coatings that resist corrosion, oxidation, and environmental wear.
• Low Absorption: Provides coatings with minimal light absorption, especially important in high-energy optical and laser systems.
• Thermal Stability: Offers good thermal stability, making it suitable for high-temperature deposition processes.
