    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for determining the optical quality of a fluoride single crystal and to provide a method of making a fluoride crystal optical element used at shorter wavelengths than SOLUTION: The method includes: (a) a step of irradiating at least one volume element of the fluoride single crystal, along at least one given family of crystalline planes with a hard X-ray beam in order to obtain a picture of the diffraction in the transmission mode of the hard X-rays across this at least one volume element along this at least one family of crystalline planes; (b) a step of studying the picture obtained in step (a); and (c) a step of calculating the mosaicity of the at least one volume element along the at least one family of crystalline planes from the study of step (b).

    Abstract: A low lead impurity level in a below 200 nm transmitting optical fluoride crystal is determined by transmitting a transmission test wavelength of 200-210 nm through below 200 nm wavelength transmitting optical fluoride crystal light transmission path length and measuring the transmission of the 200-210 nm test wavelength to provide a lead ppb impurity level measurement less than 900 ppb. Detection of a low lead impurity level in a below 200 nm transmitting optical fluoride crystal, comprises providing a below 200 nm wavelength transmitting optical fluoride crystal (20) having a crystal light transmitting path length (21). The below 200 nm wavelength transmits optical fluoride crystal light transmission path length \-2 mm. A light transmission spectrophotometer is provided having a lamp for producing a transmission test wavelength of 200-210 nm and a transmission detector (28) for measuring transmission of the test wavelength. The transmission test wavelength of 200-210 nm is transmitted through below 200 nm wavelength transmitting optical fluoride crystal light transmission path length and measuring the transmission of the 200-210 nm test wavelength through the path length to provide a lead ppb impurity level measurement less than 900 ppb. An Independent claim is also included for a method of making a below 200 nm wavelength optical element having an absorption coefficient at 200-210 nm of less than 0.0017 cm .
