Descriptions:


KTP Nonlinear crystal Potassium Titanyl Phosphate is the most commonly used material for frequency doubling of Nd-doped lasers, particularly at the low or medium power density. It is widely used for frequency mixing to generate Red/Green/Blue output, and for OPO and OPA to generate visible to mid-infrared tunable output. It is also used for many E-O devices such as Q-switches and E-O modulators.


Main applications:

1) Frequency Doubling (SHG) of Nd-doped Lasers for Green/Red Output;

2) Frequency Mixing (SFM) of Nd Laser and Diode Laser for Blue Output;

3) Parametric Sources (OPG, OPA and OPO) for 600nm - 4500nm Tunable Ouptut;

4) E-O Modulators, Optical Switches, Directional Couplers;

5) Optical Waveguides for Integrated NLO and E-O DevicesOPA and OPO.


Advantages:

1) Large nonlinear optical coefficient;

2) Wide angular bandwidth and small walk-off angle

3) Broad temperature and spectral bandwidth;

4) High Electro-Optics(E-O) coefficient and low dielectric constant;

5) Non-hygroscopic, chemically and mechanically stable

Co2+:MgAl2O4  Cospinel Q-switch
Co2+:MgAl2O4 Cobalt-doped magnesium aluminate spinel

Co2+:MgAl2O4 Cospinel is a relatively new material for passive Q-switching in lasers emitting from 1.2 to 1.6 μm, in particular, for eye-safe 1.54 μm Er:glass laser, but also works at 1.44 μm and 1.34 μm wavelengths. Spinel is a hard, stable crystal that polishes well. Cobalt substitutes readily for magnesium in the Spinel host without the need for additional charge compensation ions. High absorption cross section (3.5×10-19 cm2) permits Q-switching of Er:glass laser without intracavity focusing both with flash-lamp and diode-laser pumping. Negligible excited-state absorption results in high contrast of Q-switch, i.e. the ratio of initial (small signal) to saturated absorption is higher than 10.

N-BK7 Right Angle Prisms
High Precision Optical Glass Right Angle Prisms

In optics, a prism is a transparent optical element with flat, polished surfaces that refract light. At least two of the flat surfaces must have an angle between them. The exact angles between the surfaces depend on the application. The traditional geometrical shape is that of a triangular prism with a triangular base and rectangular sides, and in colloquial use "prism" usually refers to this type. Some types of optical prism are not in fact in the shape of geometric prisms. Prisms can be made from any material that is transparent to the wavelengths for which they are designed.
