Zirconium Fluoride

Zirconium fluoride is utilized as a low-refractive index material in the production of multi-layer optical coatings, particularly for infrared applications and ZBLAN glass fibers.

Used as a source material in physical vapor deposition processes to create thin films with specific refractive properties for optical and electronic components.

Zirconium fluoride targets are employed in sputtering processes to deposit dielectric thin films used in the fabrication of optical filters and laser coatings.
