Crystal Growth

ICL celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2012. We have produced quality crystal optics for spectroscopy and CO2 lasers since 1962. ICL operates a vertically integrated crystal optics production plant. We grow our own crystals and we are the only U.S. producer of KBr crystals. ICL in recent years has made great strides in technological development […]

Crystal Innovation

The ternary compound Cadmium Manganese Telluride (“CMT”) is a magneto-optical material that is ICL’s newest crystal product. This magneto-optical material has a giant Verdetconstant. Potential applications for this material (as well as CdMnHgTe which is under development ) include Faraday rotation devices (optical isolators in the range 630nm to 1100nm ), LEDs, spintronicss, electro-magnetic interference […]
