It second only to diamond in terms of its strength. Sapphire windows can withstand more than what quartz and conventional glass can, and at a fraction of the thickness. <strong>Sapphire crystals<\/strong> are \u201cgrown\u201d in extremely hot ovens. The large, cylindrical boules are cut into sapphire rods, which are then sliced into thin discs, ground, and polished.<\/p>\n<p>Uses of Sapphire Windows<br \/>\nSapphire windows are used when sapphire\u2019s unique properties \u2013 high strength, high scratch resistance, wide optical transmission band, extremely high melt temperature, high thermal conductivity, high electrical resistance and chemical inertness \u2013 are required.<\/p>\n<p>Commercial Uses<br \/>\nThere are many commercial uses for sapphire. Among the most commonly known are the sapphire display windows that are used to protect the phones\u2019 optics. Newer iPhones use sapphire windows because their fracture toughness is roughly four times greater than Gorilla Glass, which is just strengthened conventional glass. Prior to the smartphone revolution, most consumers\u2019 consumers\u2019 experience of sapphire came from the displays used in most high-end watches.<\/p>\n<div class=\"location\"><strong>Optics, Wafers and Crystals<\/strong><\/div>\n<div class=\"resource1\">\n<div class=\"dlms\">\n<p>A\u00a0variety of Optics, wafers and crystals substrates are offered..
