Product Description

Detailed Introduction

BBO Crystal Nonlinear Crystal Frequency Doubling Crystal (ß-BaB2O4)

BBO crystal nonlinear crystal frequency doubling crystal (ß-BaB2O4, ß-Barium Borate) is an excellent optical nonlinear crystal. It has characteristics such asbroad phase matching range, high nonlinearity (about 6 times that of KDP), high optical damage threshold, good mechanical and temperature stability. This trigonal uniaxial crystal has a wide transparency from 0.19 to 3.3 μm. Its useful transmission range (<5%/cm) is 0.21 to 2.1 μm, and it has been proven effective for generating second harmonic radiation down to about 0.21 μm. It is also useful for widely tunable optical parametric oscillators (OPOs) and amplifiers (OPAs). Autocorrelation applications can go as low as 0.19 μm. Its excellent infrared transmission and broad thermal acceptance bandwidth enable high average power OPO/OPA operation.

BBO crystal's relatively narrow angular acceptance bandwidth (especially in the UV) may limit its usefulness in certain applications involving lasers with beam quality less than the diffraction limit. In most cases, its mild hygroscopic nature does notlimit its usefulness.
BBO nonlinear crystal (ß-BaB2O4)'s broad phase matching makes it ideal for general applications with Nd:YAG and other Q-switched/mode-locked solid-state lasers. When used with tunable Ti:Sapphire, Alexandrite (alexandrite), or dye lasers, BBO can be used to generate tunable radiation from the near-infrared to the ultraviolet. This high-power, broadly tunable laserradiation has many applications, including spectroscopy, medicine, materials processing, nonlinear optics, lidar, remote sensing, and photochemistry. In the commercial market, BBO-based solid-state nonlinear systems can compete with dye lasers and offer advantages of reduced operating costs and more convenient tuning over a large frequency range.

Typical Applications:

• Harmonic generation of Nd:YAG lasers (SHG, THG, 4HG, 5HG)
• SHG, THG generation for Ti:Sapphire lasers, femtosecond oscillators, femtosecond amplifiers
• Tunable solid-state lasers for OPO (pumped at 355, 532, or 1064 nm)
• UV output from SHG, SFG of dye laser sources
• Autocorrelation testing for ultrashort pulse (ps and fs) lasers
