Barium fluoride crystals have good optical transmission properties and can be used as ultraviolet and infrared optical windows in the spectral range of 0.15μm-14.5μm. At the same time, it also has excellent scintillation properties, which makes it an important crystal material in the fields of high-energy physics and nuclear physics, nuclear medicine and so on.
