BBO Crystals
BBO possesses an extremely wide transparency range, large phase-matching angle, high resistance to optical damage, broad temperature matching, and excellent optical homogeneity. It finds extensive application, especially in the third-harmonic generation of Nd:YAG lasers, due to its outstanding properties among nonlinear optical crystals.
BBO (Beta Barium Borate) crystal is a remarkable optical material with exceptional properties.
BBO crystal is known for its wide transparency range, covering ultraviolet to infrared wavelengths. This makes it highly versatile and suitable for a variety of applications in the field of optics. It has a high damage threshold, enabling it to withstand intense laser beams without significant damage.
The crystal has excellent nonlinear optical properties, making it ideal for frequency conversion processes such as second harmonic generation (SHG) and third harmonic generation (THG). It can efficiently convert laser light of one wavelength to another, opening up possibilities for a wide range of scientific research and industrial applications. BBO crystal also has good thermal stability and mechanical strength, ensuring reliable performance even in demanding environments. Its precise optical characteristics and quality make it a preferred choice for researchers, engineers, and manufacturers in the fields of laser technology, spectroscopy, and nonlinear optics.
