86-755-82924037Quartz Substrates - A1 are foundational elements in the realm of optical communication devices, distinguished by their compatibility with the thermal expansion coefficient of optical fibers. These substrates boast high dimensional accuracy, remarkable hardness, and superior environmental resilience, making them indispensable in the construction of optical couplers, ribbon fiber welding protectors, and high-power laser systems. Fabricated from preformed quartz rods, the manufacturing process involves meticulous cleaning, securing atop a high-temperature graphite furnace, and exposure to a core protected by inert gas. Through continuous traction, drawing, and cutting techniques, A1 quartz substrates are produced on a large scale. They feature transparent surfaces, exceptional performance, and high dimensional precision, thereby enhancing component quality while minimizing costs.
