Barium fluoride
BaF2

Barium fluoride (BaF2) crystals belong to the cubic crystal system, good moisture resistance, melting point of 1280 ℃, refractive index in a wide range of wavelengths does not change much, a wide range of transmittance, the highest transmittance in the range of wavelengths from 0.2 μm to 10 μm can be more than 90%, with good optical properties and mechanical properties.BaF2 crystals have excellent scintillation properties (barium fluoride scintillation crystals have a fast component of the peak emission wavelength of 220nm with decay time of 0.6ns). BaF2 crystals have excellent scintillation properties (barium fluoride scintillation crystal has a decay time of 0.6ns, a fast component of the peak emission wavelength of 220nm, and it is the fastest scintillation crystal with the fastest decay speed found so far), which has a wide range of applications in the fields of high-energy physics, nuclear physics and nuclear medicine.
