Features

Broad transmission range. High optical damage threshold. High effective nonlinear coefficient. Non-critical phase matching (NCPM). Excellent mechanical and chemical stability.

Applications

Laser frequency doubling. LBO crystals can be used for second and third harmonic generation in Nd:YAG, Ti:Sapphire, and other lasers, producing lasers at wavelengths such as green and ultraviolet. Optically parametric oscillators (OPO) and optically parametric amplifiers (OPA). LBO crystals perform exceptionally well in OPOs and OPAs, enabling the generation of tunable laser outputs. Scientific research. LBO crystals are employed in research fields including quantum optics and nonlinear optics.
