Yttria Stabilized Zirconia (YSZ) single-crystal substrate is manufactured by adding 8-13 mol% Yttrium to the melts of Zirconium Oxide (Zirconia) as stabilizer to prevent the Zirconia from breaking up during the cooling process, Yttria stabilized  Zirconia (YSZ) single crystals feature moderate cost, wear-resistance, and good match with multiple single and multiplication oxides. YSZ was one of the earliest materials used for stabilizing high-temperature superconducting thin films of YBCO. If using it for optical transmission experiments then get double-side polished versions, otherwise single-side polished is the most common. Exhibiting outstanding physical and chemical properties, Shalom EO's YSZ substrates have versatile functions in various fields, such as ceramics, refractories, machinery, electronics, optics, and aerospace, etc.
