Material Research in the
Czech Republic
Material characterisation and testing
Thin layers and coatings
Microstructural technology
Ceramic and glass materials, and cements
Synthetic fibres
Plastics processing
Metalurgy
Paper production
Analysis made by TC AV ČR
2
Crytur – One of the Czech
Material Manufacturers
Proprietary materials - single crystals - are processed to
high value products by precision grinding and polishing,
deposition of dielectric layers and clean room assembly.
Major directions:
scintillation materials and detectors,
detection units for electron microscopy,
laser rods and other laser components,
crystal based precision optics including dielectric layers,
and
sapphire profiles.

Company Profile
55 employees
Turnover 2,5 mil. EUR/year
Average turnover growth 15% yearly in the last 10
years
Production 20% in CZK, 55% in EUR, 25% in USD
Niche applications requiring strong research.
Research expenses ca 25% of the turnover.
Value added about 70%.
4
Materials Grown
Garnets YAG and LuAG, perovskites YAP, silicates LSO
and YSO
Dopants:
Ce, Nd, Tm, V, Yb, Pr, Er, Cr
5
Detection Units for
Electron Microscopy
Single crystals for BSE detection in electron
microscopy – Crytur has a majority of the word
market
Portfolio expansion from crystals to complete
detection systems
New clean-room facilities

Lasers
Laser rods primarily for medical and defence
industries
Specialty materials – YAP, YAG, LuAG with Nd,
Tm, V, Yb, Pr, Er, Cr, BaWO4, etc.
Bonding, angles
10
Coating
High reflectivity mirrors, anti-reflection coatings,
partial reflectivity mirrors, dichroic mirrors, beam
splitters, graded reflectivity laser mirrors, optical
filters, coated infrared optics, etc.
11
Research in Crytur
Large extent of research (25% of turnover),
due to short product life-time (ca 5 years).
Czech Republic reasearch environment:
1) Research expenses are double tax-deductible, or
2) Governmental research subsidy (program TIP)
Low participation of the Czech companies in the EU
programs, even compared to the „new“ EU countries.
12
Research Collaboration
Crytur has a long contractual collaboration with ca 10
university groups.
Collaboration example:
„Nanoscintillation Materials“ – collaboration of 5
university groups for 4 years. Crytur is just end user,
total budget 1,8 mil. EUR.
Idea behind project: When scintillator particles are
smaller than 1/10 of the emitted wavelength, standard
optics laws do not apply.
13
Investment Activity
Crytur sales (in EUR) increased six-folds in the last 10
years – large investments necessary.
Investments corresponding to 20% of the turnover in
2006-2010 – EU subsidy on investments ca 50%.
Investment subsidy available through CzechInvest up
to 2013.
Condition: Production of newly developed product –
available even for foreign companies

Summary
Extent of
material research corresponds to a strong
industry share on the Czech GDP. It is supported with
governmental and EU incentives.
Crytur
has a strong position in single crystal
manufacturing, in particular in imaging with ionising
particles.
