Applications

Silicon is mainly processed into windows and lenses for the 1.5–7um band. Silicon mirrors are used in CO2 lasers and spectrometers.

Key Features

Silicon (Si) is grown by Czochralski (CZ) pulling. Included oxides cause absorption in the 9μm band; float-zone (FZ) growth can avoid this. Optical silicon is generally lightly doped, with resistivity of 5–40 ohm-centimeters, for optimum transmission above 10μm, usually with boron for P type or phosphorus for N type. The source states that doped silicon has another passband from 30–100μm, effective only in very-high-resistivity uncompensated material. CZ silicon is commonly used as a substrate for infrared reflectors and windows in the 1.5–8μm region. Strong absorption around 9μm makes it unsuitable for CO2-laser transmission, but high thermal conductivity and low density make it useful for laser mirrors.
