Lighting Technology

High purity quartz sand is essential for lighting manufacturing.  Tubes of silica glass are used in halogen lamp bulbs, which are used to envelope the high temperature tungsten filament.  Halogen lamps work by using an incandescent lamp with a tungsten filament contained within an inert gas and a small amount of a halogen gas.  The […]

Lithium Ion Battery Cells

Development of new, safe, low cost and environmentally friendly materials for lithium ion batteries is an essential part of the technological advance of portable electronic devices and electric vehicles. To meet the requirements, such as high capacity, power and stable cycle performance, diverse research has been performed, in the case of the anode, to search […]

Integrated Circuits

An integrated circuit, commonly referred to as an IC, is a microscopic array of electronic circuits and components that has been diffused or implanted onto the surface of a single crystal, or chip, of semiconducting material such as silicon. It is called an integrated circuit because the components, circuits, and base material are all made […]

Optical Fiber

Quartz fibres used for fibre optic cables are flexible, transparent fibres made of pure silica glass, not much thicker than a human hair, essential for the telecommunications industry.  Constructed with a transparent core surrounded by transparent cladding material, which has a lower index of refraction, optical fibres make use of the highest purity quartz sand […]

Quartz Crucibles

Extremely high-purity quartz crucibles (quartz glass containers) are used when producing single crystal silicon, the raw material for semiconductor devices. High purity quartz crucibles are used for pulling single crystal silicon that is used to produce semiconductors and solar cells. Semiconductor devices, which are the foundation of the semiconductor industry, are manufactured by forming tiny […]

Solar Panel Wafers

Solar energy is one of the best known renewable energy sources, which has the added benefit of being easy to install.  As the cost of solar continues to drop and efficiencies continue to increase, solar is becoming more and more viable globally. The monocrystalline solar market is currently booming, and overtook multicrystalline technology in terms […]
