HGO grows LBO Nonlinear crystals using flux technology. LBO crystals is an excellent nonlinear crystal.For frequency doubling(SHG),tripling(THG) of Nd:YAG,Nd:YLF,Nd:YVO4 lasers, it is one of the most useful nonlinear optical materials in ultraviolet and visible laser applications.

Descriptions?

HGO grows Lithium Triborate (LiB3O5, LBO) Nonlinear crystals using flux technology. LBO a broad transparency range, wide acceptance angle, small walk-off angle, and the highest damage threshold among common nonlinear crystals.

Most common applications include high-power near-infrared wavelength second harmonic generation, sum-frequency generation to produce visible, ultraviolet laser light, and visible, near-infrared widely tuned optical parametric oscillators. HGO are capable of providing uncoated super-polished LBO crystals desired, e.g. for high-power UV generation via sum-frequency generation of 1064 nm and 532 nm.

Main applications:

1) SHG, THG

2) OPA and OPO

Advantages:

1)  Broad transparency range from 160nm to 2600nm;

2)  High optical homogeneity (δn≈10-6/cm) and free of inclusion;

3)  Large effective SHG coefficient;

4)  Wide acceptance angle and small walk-off;

5)  Type I and type II non-critical phase matching (NCPM) in a wide wavelength range;

6) High damage threshold(18.9 GW/cm 2 for a 1.3ns laser at 1053nm)

7)  Spectral NCPM near 1300nm
