Alumina Ceramic Laser Waveguides For CO2 lasers and excimer lasers

Image
  Innovacera introduces high-quality ceramic laser waveguides ! Kindly note that we use state-of-the-art grinding equipment to create highly accurate grooves and complex internal structures for CO2 waveguides. At the same time, maintaining precise dimensional tolerances is critical to ensure that the apertures can properly guide the photon beam and ensure a tight seal with the gas medium. Our custom waveguides provide superior performance, reliability, and exceptional durability and efficiency, ideal for a wide range of laser applications.   CO2 lasers were one of the first gas lasers developed and remain one of the most powerful and efficient lasers to date, with an output power to pump power ratio of up to 20%. CO2 lasers produce beams in the infrared and microwave bands (wavelengths of 9.4 to 10.6  ยต m), and lasers with high enough power can melt or ablate a wide range of materials they are focused on.     Carbon dioxide (CO2) lasers typically use a pump cavi...

Magnesium-Stabilized Zirconia (MSZ) for Demanding Ultra-High Temperature Applications

Image
  In the Zirconia ceramic family, there is a material that can endure the high temperature of 2200 degrees centigrade. We call it Magnesium Stabilized Zirconia ceramic. It is a refractory material. Although 95% of the composition is zirconium oxide, its performance is quite different from the white zirconia ceramic(Y2O3 partially stabilized zirconia ceramic).     From its appearance, it is yellow in color and with porosity. We have two kinds of magnesium-stabilized zirconia ceramic. One with low porosity its a density is ≤52g/cm3, one with high porosity its a density a little higher, 5.4-5.6g/m3. But their main composition is almost the same. They can be used in air, vacuum, or protective atmosphere environments. Following is the detail of the material data sheet.   Property Item Units MSZ-L MSZ-H Composition ZrO2 % ≥95 ≥95 Al2O3 % ≤0.2 ≤0.2 SiO2 % ≤0.4 ≤0.4 MgO % ≤2.9 ≤2.9 Fe2O3 % ≤0.1 ≤0.1 TiO2 % ≤0.1 ≤0.1 Physical Color Yellow Yellow Density g/cm3 ≤5.2 ≤5.4-5.6 Po...

Characteristics And Common Application of Silicon Nitride Igniters

Image
  Silicon nitride (Si3N4) ceramic   igniters have significant advantages over ceramic heaters, mainly reflected in their high temperature resistance, rapid heating ability and thermal stability, making them very popular in many high-temperature application scenarios. Today, we will mainly introduce the characteristics, common application scenarios, advantages and precautions of silicon nitride igniters.      1. Core characteristics  1) High temperature tolerance  2) Silicon nitride ceramic igniters can heat up to 1000-1400 ° C in a very short time (2-10 seconds), and can work stably in a high-temperature environment of 1200-1400 ° C for a long time. This feature makes it suitable for scenarios that require rapid start-up and maintenance of high-temperature uniform distribution, such as industrial kilns, burners, mold heating, etc.  3) Thermal surface stability  4) The heating element is encapsulated in a dense silicon nitride ceramic matrix ...

Introduction of Mass Spectrometer Filament

Image
INNOVACERA is glad to offer new standard filament assemblies, a critical component in mass spectrometry applications for the analytical and medical industries.   Principle of the mass spectrometer filament The mass spectrometer filament is also called the ion source filament or the cathode filament. It is mainly made of high melting point metals such as  tungsten (W)  alloy or molybdenum alloy. Its function is similar to that of ordinary filaments. It mainly produces electron emission under high pressure and excites gaseous molecules into ions, thereby generating the charge-to-mass ratio signal required for mass spectrometry.     These filament supports are manufactured using 96% alumina, selected for its good electrical insulation and high temperature stability. Customers can choose between two and four-pin options, with the pins brazed into the alumina insulator ready for filament welding. Our brazing process makes the filament considerably more resistant...

Ceramic Packages For Semiconductor Discrete Device Power Electronics
