HPQ Applications

High purity quartz products are ideal for use in the semiconductor industry, due to their superior quality and excellent purity
High purity quartz is utilized in the semiconductor industry to produce crucibles and quartz glass products such as windows, rods, and tubes
High purity quartz is also employed in the production of silicon metal, which is the base for semiconductor wafers manufactured by using the Czochralski process

Solar energy is an easy-to-install source of renewable energy currently available.
High purity quartz is utilized primarily for Czochralski crucibles for photovoltaic cells, tubes, and other hardware that are used in the photovoltaic industry
High purity quartz is also utilized in several ways in the manufacture of c-Si cells and modules including in crucibles; quartz glass for tubes, rods, and widows; and silicon metal, which the base material for all c-Si PV modules

The core of optical fibers is usually made from synthetic silica, while the transparent cladding material can be made from glass of natural high purity quartz
A small number of high purity quartz crystals are utilized for prisms and lenses in optical instruments
High-purity UV grades of fused quartz are employed to manufacture several individual uncoated lens elements of special-purpose lenses

The glass used in halogen lamps must have excellent optical transmission properties and the ability to withstand extreme temperatures and thermal shocks without getting deformed. The tungsten filament glows at a temperature of 2500°C, only a few mm away from the glass wall. Only high purity quartz glass can be used for this application.
HPQ is utilized in all types of quartz lighting including automotive xenon, halogen, HID, and UPH lamps
