ABSTRACT:
A hot-pressed optical body is disclosed which is free from absorption bands due to carbon dioxide, water, hydroxyl ion and acid fluorides in the ultraviolet, visible and near-infrared wavelength regions. Typically, the optical body is formed from a powder of an alkaline earth metal fluoride, alkali metal fluoride, or rare earth metal fluoride. One or more absorption bands due to a single impurity may be reduced or eliminated, or bands due to plural impurities may be reduced or eliminated sequentially, or simultaneously. The optical body is made by flowing a reactive, reducing gas, optionally, in combination with hydrogen fluoride gas, directly into the die cavity containing a pressable powder, and either hot-pressing or extruding the powder.
