Renewable Design for Nd:Yag Crystal - KDP & DKDP Crystal – WISOPTIC
Renewable Design for Nd:Yag Crystal - KDP & DKDP Crystal – WISOPTIC Detail:
KDP (KH2PO4 ) and DKDP/KD*P (KD2PO4 ) are among the most widely-used commercial NLO materials. With good UV transmission, high damage threshold, and high birefringence, these material are usually used for doubling, tripling and quadrupling of Nd:YAG laser.
With high E-O coefficient, KDP and DKDP crystals are also widely used to make Pockels cells for laser system, such as Nd:YAG, Nd:YLF, Ti-Sapphire, Alexandrite, etc. Even though DKDP with high deuteration is more commonly used, KDP and DKDP both can do phase matching of type I and type II for the SHG and THG of 1064nm Nd:YAG laser. We recommend KDP for FGH of Nd:YAG laser (266nm).
As one of the major KDP/DKDP suppliers (source manufacturer) in the whole international market, WISOPTIC has high capability of material selection, processing (polishing, coating, gold-plating, etc). WISOPTIC confirms reasonable price, mass production, quick delivery and long guarantee period of these materials.
