This LBO nonlinear optical crystal requires precise fabrication tolerances and anti-reflection coating for use in high-power harmonic generation. The crystal's performance depends on meeting specified flatness, surface quality, and angular alignment constraints.
- Flatness Constraint: Flatness must be better than λ/10 at 633 nm to maintain wavefront quality and avoid beam distortion.
- Surface Quality Constraint: Surface quality must meet 10/5 scratch-dig per MIL-PRF-13830A to prevent laser-induced damage at high power densities.
- Coating Requirement: Anti-reflection coating is required on all optical surfaces to minimize reflection losses and improve transmission efficiency.
- Angle Tolerance Constraint: Crystal orientation angles theta and psi must be within ±0.2° of the specified values to achieve Type I or Type II phase-matching.
- Size Tolerance Constraint: Custom dimensions must be fabricated within ±0.1 mm tolerance to ensure proper mounting and alignment in the optical system.
What are the absorption coefficients of the LBO crystal at 1064 nm and 532 nm?
The absorption coefficient is <0.1%/cm at 1064 nm and <0.3%/cm at 532 nm, as specified for this LBO nonlinear optical crystal. These low values support medium-to-high power density and high-energy second- and third-harmonic generation applications.
What is the phase-matching range for Type I and Type II operation in this LBO crystal?
Type I phase-matching covers 551–2600 nm, and Type II covers 790–2150 nm. The crystal's orthorhombic structure (point group mm²) enables these ranges for 1064 nm harmonic generation and other nonlinear processes.
What are the maximum custom dimensions and tolerances available for this LBO crystal?
Custom dimensions up to 100 × 100 mm² with thickness up to 50 mm are supported. Size tolerance is ±0.1 mm, angle tolerance Δθ ≤ ±0.2° and Δψ ≤ ±0.2°, flatness <λ/10 @ 633 nm, and surface quality 10/5 per MIL-PRF-13830A.
This LBO crystal offers a broad transmission range (160–2600 nm) with low absorption at 1064 nm and 532 nm, making it well-suited for high-power second- and third-harmonic generation. Custom dimensions up to 100 × 100 mm² with stringent optical specifications (λ/10 flatness, 10/5 surface quality) enable integration into demanding laser systems.
Positive
- Broad transmission range 160–2600 nm: Covers UV to NIR, enabling multiple harmonic generation wavelengths from a 1064 nm fundamental.
- Low absorption at key wavelengths: Absorption coefficients <0.1%/cm at 1064 nm and <0.3%/cm at 532 nm minimize thermal lensing in high-power operation.
Trade-offs
- Custom dimensions require quotation: Dimensions up to 100×100 mm² are custom; final size, coating, and tolerances must be confirmed before ordering, adding lead time and requiring pre-order coordination.
- Precise angular alignment needed: Angle tolerances of ±0.2° in theta and psi require careful mounting and alignment to achieve phase-matching conditions, increasing setup complexity.
