Jiayuan Chemical showcased its products at SPIE Optics + Photonics 2026 in the United States, deeply connecting with the global optics and photonics industry chain.

Recently, representatives from Changzhou Jiayuan Chemical Co., Ltd. attended the SPIE Optics + Photonics 2026 exhibition in San Diego, USA. They exchanged ideas with companies and professionals from around the world in the fields of optical materials, optical components, thin film coating, lasers, infrared imaging, optoelectronic devices, and scientific research, and gained a deeper understanding of the development trends of the international optical industry and the market demand for high-end materials.

SPIE Optics + Photonics is one of the world's leading professional events in the field of optics and photonics. The 2026 event will be held in San Diego, USA, from August 23rd to 27th, with the professional exhibition taking place from August 25th to 27th. The exhibition focuses on optical engineering, thin film coating, advanced metrology, nanomaterials, photonic devices, detection and imaging, lasers, astronomical optics, and related advanced materials, providing an important platform for exchange between upstream materials companies and optical device/equipment manufacturers and research institutions.

High-purity fluorides have become a key focus for Jiayuan.

As high-end optical systems continue to develop towards higher transmittance, lower loss, higher stability, and wider spectral range, the requirements for the purity, impurity control, and batch stability of optical materials are constantly increasing.

During the conference, Jiayuan Chemical focused on the development of fields such as optical coating, infrared optics, laser devices, and precision optical manufacturing.

These applications are highly relevant to Jiayuan's existing product portfolio, including:

Magnesium fluoride (MgF₂) 
is an important optical coating and optical material, used in antireflective coatings, ultraviolet optical components, laser optical systems, and precision optics. High-purity magnesium fluoride is particularly valuable in the ultraviolet and visible light bands.

calcium fluoride (CaF₂) 
is widely used in ultraviolet, deep ultraviolet, and infrared optics, and can be used in high-end optical crystals, laser systems, optical windows, and precision optical devices. With the development of semiconductor lithography, lasers, and advanced imaging technologies, high-purity CaF₂ materials are receiving increasing attention.

Barium fluoride (BaF₂) 
has a wide spectral transmission range and has potential applications in infrared optics, detectors, optical windows, and some high-energy physics and scientific research fields.

Strontium fluoride (SrF₂) and other high-purity fluorides: 
High-purity strontium fluoride and other inorganic fluoride salts can be used in the research and development of special optical crystals, coating materials, lasers and advanced materials. Although the market is relatively specialized, it has high requirements for product purity and impurity control.

The demand for optical thin films and coating materials deserves attention.

SPIE Optics + Photonics has long been home to a large number of companies specializing in optical components, thin film coating, and precision optics.

From an industry chain perspective, a high-performance lens, window, or laser optical element often requires the design and coating of multiple optical thin films. The purity, metallic impurities, particle size, and stability of the coating materials all affect the transmittance, reflectivity, laser damage threshold, and lifespan of the final film.

Therefore, for Jiayuan Chemical, high-purity magnesium fluoride, calcium fluoride, and other electronic and optical grade fluorides are important product directions for further expanding into the international market.

From material supplier to application market

By participating in SPIE Optics + Photonics, Jiayuan Chemical not only focused on the products themselves, but also emphasized understanding how downstream customers use these materials.

Through communication with optical companies, research institutions, and customers in the industry chain, we can gain a more intuitive understanding of the differences in material properties required for different applications. For example, there are significant differences between ordinary industrial-grade fluorides and high-purity products used in vacuum evaporation, optical crystals, or precision optical systems in terms of purity, metallic impurities, moisture content, particle size, and packaging methods.

These end-user demands have also provided Jiayuan with a clearer direction for subsequent product development, quality control, and market promotion.

Expanding the high-end optics market in the United States and globally

In recent years, Jiayuan Chemical has continuously improved its product system of high-purity fluorides, electronic chemicals, fluorine-containing materials and specialty chemicals, and actively expanded into overseas markets.

Participating in SPIE Optics + Photonics will help the company further reach customers in the North American and global optical industry chain, understand the technological development direction of high-end optical materials, and find cooperation opportunities with optical coating companies, crystal manufacturing companies, laser equipment companies, infrared optics companies, semiconductor companies, and research institutions.

In the future, Jiayuan Chemical will continue to focus on high purity, high stability, and customization, strengthening its product development and supply capabilities for high-purity fluorides and related materials, and providing more stable material solutions for customers in the global optics, optoelectronics, semiconductor, and advanced manufacturing fields.
