Stepanov's Method Grown Sapphire Wafer 2Inch 3inch 4inch 6inch R-Axis M-plane
The main application of optical sapphire is large aperture windows, viewports, illuminators for common-aperture optical systems (visible+IR) what make sapphire the top actual material due to its optical and mechanical properties.
Sapphire products are used in many fields as optical details (windows, plates, light guides and lenses, especially sapphire plane-parallel plates - windows, optical high-temperature substrates, exact mechanics details, bulbs of high pressure lamps and so on.
