Strontium Fluoride SrF2 Pieces 99.99% 10 mm ATOMFAIR®

This evaporation material requires moisture-controlled handling during storage and loading to prevent degradation. Deposition source compatibility and process parameters must be matched to the material's melting point and thermal behavior to achieve consistent film quality.

• Moisture Sensitivity: Handle and store the material in a dry, inert atmosphere to avoid moisture absorption.
• Evaporation Source Compatibility: Use only W/Mo/Ta boats or graphite/alumina crucibles for thermal evaporation to prevent contamination.
• Process Method Preference: Select thermal resistive evaporation as the preferred method; electron-beam evaporation requires prior quotation review.
• Pre-Use Verification: Confirm the material purity, form, and size range match the deposition source geometry before loading.

Strontium Fluoride (SrF2) evaporation material in 10 mm pieces at 99.99% purity is evaluated for thermal/resistive evaporation using W/Mo/Ta boats or graphite/alumina crucibles, with e-beam deposition available by RFQ. The material's high purity and defined physical form support consistent thin-film deposition, but its moisture sensitivity and high melting point (1,473 °C) impose controlled handling and specific source hardware requirements.

Positive

• High purity for consistent films: 99.99% purity minimizes contamination in deposited thin films, critical for optical and electronic applications where impurity levels affect performance.
• Defined physical form for loading: Supplied as 10 mm pieces, this form factor facilitates uniform source loading and controlled evaporation rates in thermal or resistive evaporation systems.

Trade-offs

• Moisture-sensitive handling required: Moisture-controlled handling is specified, indicating hygroscopic behavior that necessitates dry storage and glovebox or inert-atmosphere processing to prevent degradation.
• High melting point limits source options: With a melting point of 1,473 °C, the material requires refractory metal boats (W/Mo/Ta) or alumina crucibles, excluding standard lower-temperature evaporation sources and increasing hardware costs.
