Description
Potassium Titanyl Phosphate (KTP) Crystal is a widely used nonlinear optical material with excellent electro-optical, nonlinear optical, and frequency-doubling properties. KTP crystals are extensively applied in second harmonic generation (SHG), optical parametric oscillators (OPO), sum-frequency generation (SFG), and electro-optical modulation. KTP’s high damage threshold, broad transparency range, and large nonlinear coefficient make it ideal for frequency conversion of Nd:YAG lasers and other laser systems operating in the visible and near-infrared regions.
Key Features and Properties:
- High Nonlinear Optical Coefficient: ~15 times that of KDP crystals.
- Broad Transparency Range: 350 nm to 4500 nm.
