Beta-Barium Borate (BBO) Crystal

BBO crystal (β-Barium Borate, β-BaB?O?), a trigonal non-centrosymmetric nonlinear optical crystal, is renowned for generating 2nd–5th harmonics of Nd:YAG lasers with efficiencies up to 70% (SHG, 532 nm), 60% (THG, 355 nm), 50% (FHG, 266 nm), and a record 200 mW at 213 nm (FFHG). Its superior performance stems from a broad transparency range (189–3500 nm), high nonlinear coefficient (d?? = 2.6 pm/V at 1064 nm→532 nm), low photorefractivity, and non-hygroscopicity, making it critical for UV lithography, laser micromachining, and medical optics.

Potassium Dihydrogen / Dideuterium Phosphate (KDP-KD*P) Crystal

Potassium Dihydrogen Phosphate (KDP, KH?PO?) and Potassium Dideuterium Phosphate (KDP, KD?PO?) are tetragonal nonlinear optical crystals widely used for second (532 nm, 60% efficiency), third (355 nm), and fourth harmonic generation (266 nm) of Nd:YAG lasers via type I/II phase matching at room temperature, with KDP offering 75% SHG efficiency and higher damage threshold via deuteration. As electro-optic materials, they feature ultra-high coefficients (r??=23.3 pm/V for KDP), low half-wave voltage (~7.6 kV at 1064 nm), and broad bandwidth (>10 GHz), enabling applications in Pockels cells, modulators, and high-power laser systems like inertial confinement fusion, where KDP’s non-hygroscopicity outperforms KDP in harsh environments.

Calcite (CaCO?) Crystal

Calcite (CaCO?), a trigonal negative uniaxial crystal with extreme birefringence and broad transmission (200 nm–2300nm), is the premier material for visible-near infrared polarizing optics despite its softness (Mohs 3) and hygroscopicity. It enables Glan–Taylor/Thompson polarizers with extinction ratios >10?:1, beam displacers, and UV wave plates, outperforming synthetic crystals like YVO? in the ultraviolet range but requiring AR coatings and humidity control.
