Barium Fluoride Sputtering Targets and Applications

Barium fluoride (BaF2)  is a chemical compound of barium and fluorine and is a salt. It is a solid which can be a transparent crystal. Barium fluoride  is a chemical compound for the 10 to 20µm wavelength infrared region. Barium fluoride is used in aluminium-metallurgy, enamel and glazing frits production and the production of welding agents. In aluminum-metallurgy,  barium fluoride  is used as additive in aluminum refining process. When we look at the surface treatment in aluminum industry, we see that bright reflective surface on the aluminum is achieved by chemical polishing. Inorganic fluorides like  barium fluoride  are also of critical importance in the flux brazing of aluminum and  aluminum  alloys, acting to remove the oxide layer. There are many researches done about barium fluoride. Here is one example: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/...                     ...
