LBO Crystal (Lithium Triborate Crystal)Note: OEM Dimension, different axis angle cutting and coating and damage threshold upon request others are available upon request.
LBO crystals is an exnt nonystal. For frequency doubling(SHG),tripling(THG) of Nd:YAG,Nd:YLF,Nd:YVO4 lasers, it is one of the most useful nontical materials in ultraviolet and visible laser applications.
⢠broad transparency range from 160nm to 2600nm (see Figure 1);
⢠high optical homogeneity (δnâ10-6/cm) and being free of inclusion;
⢠relatively large effective SHG coefficient (about three times that of KDP);
⢠wide acceptance angle and small walk-off;
⢠type I and type II non-critical se matching (NCPM) in a wide wavelength range;
⢠spectral NCPM near 1300nm.
⢠high damage threshold(18.9 GW/cm 2 for a 1.3ns laser at 1053nm);                  Â
LBO has the highest damage threshold in all the commonly-used inorganic NLO crystals. Therefore, it is the best candidate for high average power SHG and other nontical processes.â¢Â SHG, THG of Nd lasersLBO's main applicationsÂ
