Synthetic Colored Gemstone White Sapphire gem for jewelry Free-Size Cutting

Short Description:

The lab-grown White Sapphire gem is a high-purity aluminum oxide single crystal material produced using advanced Edge-defined Film-fed Growth (EFG) technology. Utilizing ultra-pure alumina raw materials (99.999%) and precise temperature gradient control (2050±5°C), we achieve completely colorless crystal growth. This White Sapphire gem exhibits identical physicochemical properties to natural white sapphire, with superior crystal structure integrity (dislocation density <10²/cm³) that surpasses natural specimens. Through our patented annealing process (1450°C/72h), we have successfully eliminated internal micro-stresses, achieving optical-grade uniformity (Δn<5×10⁻⁶). The White Sapphire gem can be processed into wafers up to 100mm in diameter, providing unprecedented material options for jewelry design and industrial applications.

    Key Characteristics

    1.Optical Properties
    White Sapphire gem exhibits exceptional optical characteristics:

    · Maintains superior transmittance across an ultra-broad spectral range (200-5500nm), with >90% transmittance in the visible spectrum (380-780nm) and >85% in UV range (200-380nm)

    · Features high refractive index (1.76-1.77 @589nm) and dispersion value (0.018), producing more intense fire than common synthetic spinel

    · Demonstrates complete fluorescence inertness under both long-wave (365nm) and short-wave (254nm) UV radiation

    · Extremely low birefringence (0.008) ensures ghosting-free imaging, making it ideal for precision optical components

    2.Physical Properties
    White Sapphire gem possesses outstanding physical parameters:

    · Mohs hardness 9 (second only to diamond), Vickers hardness 2200-2300kg/mm² (10× harder than standard glass)

    · Density 3.98g/cm³, identical to natural sapphire with premium tactile quality

    · Anisotropic thermal expansion: 5.3×10⁻⁶/K (parallel to c-axis), 4.8×10⁻⁶/K (perpendicular to c-axis)

    · Melting point up to 2053℃, thermal conductivity 35W/(m·K), stable long-term operation at 800℃

    · Exceptional chemical inertness (resistant to all acids except HF), suitable for harsh environments

    3.Machining Characteristics

    White Sapphire gem offers superior processability:

    · Ultra-thin cutting capability (0.1mm thickness with ±0.005mm tolerance) for miniaturized devices

    · Supports multi-angle faceting (minimum edge angle 30°) for complex cut designs

    · Polishable to optical-grade surface finish (Ra<1nm), achieving λ/10 flatness @633nm

    · Laser engraving capability (50μm precision) for anti-counterfeit markings without affecting transmittance

    · Special forming processes enable curved surfaces with minimum 5mm bending radius

    4.Quality Assurance
    White Sapphire gem adheres to stringent quality standards:
