Infrasil is a type of fused quartz produced by electrically fusing high quality quartz crystals. Infrasil has three times higher metallic impurity than Suprasil, so it shows reduced UV transmission. However, Infrasil has a lower OH content than Suprasil, and consequently better IR transmission. Infrasil exhibits high strength and low thermal expansion and its homogeneity is better than that of Suprasil.
