Extra Large Sapphire Solutions
Up to 12 inches — for aerospace, photonics, and advanced optical applications
OVERVIEW
Large-format sapphire for demanding optics
Wafer Plus specialises in manufacturing sapphire products with diameters of up to 12 inches for advanced optical applications. These large-diameter substrates offer excellent transparency, durability, and precision for aerospace and photonics industries.
With scratch resistance second only to diamond (Mohs 9) and compressive strength of 2000 MPa, sapphire windows perform where glass fails.
Extreme hardness
Mohs 9 scratch resistance. 2000 MPa compressive strength withstands mechanical stress in demanding installations.
Extreme environment resistance
Resistant to gas, sea water, high temperature, and high pressure where conventional glass cannot be used.
Broad optical transmission
Transmits ~150 nm to ~6 µm — UV, visible, near-IR, and thermal imaging in a single window.
