(S)-()-2-(6-Methoxy-2-Naphthyl)Propionic Acid 99%
Application
Caesium iodide (chemical formula CsI) is the ionic compound of caesium and iodine. It is often used as the input phosphor of an x-ray image intensifier tube found in fluoroscopy equipment. Caesium iodide photocathodes are highly efficient at extreme ultraviolet wavelengths.
Purpose
For R&D use onlynot for drug household or other uses.
General Description
Caesium iodide is used as a beamsplitter in Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometers. It has a wider transmission range than the more common potassium bromide beamsplitters extending its working range into the far infrared. However optical-quality CsI crystals are very soft and a hard to cleave or polish. They should also be coated (typically with germanium) and stored in a desiccator to minimize interaction with atmospheric water vapors.
