In applications where even a degree or two of thermal variation is vitally important, the material of choice is machined glass ceramic, which is annealed to a deliver near-zero coefficient of thermal expansion.
The biggest and most well-known glass ceramic is Schott ZERODUR(R), a zero expansion glass ceramic. Sapphire ceramic China is among the largest consumers of non-telescope ZERODUR(R) on the planet. We also work with Corning ULE(R) as well as other equivalent materials.
Our sister division Sapphire ceramic China Ltd. works with numerous materials, including hard and soft ceramics, sapphire, silicon nitride, silicon carbide and other super hard materials.
