Alpha-Barium Borate-manufacture,factory,supplier from China

High temperature phase of α-BBO Crystal (BaB2O4) is one of the excellent birefringent crystals. It is characterized by large birefringent coefficient and wide transmission window ranged from 189nm to 3500nm. Due to its high chemical stability and medium hardness, α-BBO is fabricated easily into many kinds of optical components.The physical, chemical, thermal and optical properties of α-BBO are similar to those of β-BBO.

Barium Borate exists in three major crystalline forms: alpha, beta, and gamma. The low-temperature beta phase converts into the alpha phase upon heating to 925 °C. β-BBO differs from α-BBO by the positions of the barium ions within the crystal. Both phases are birefringent, however α-BBO has centric symmetry and thus does not has the same nonlinear properties as β-BBO.α-BBO is a negative uniaxial crystal with a large birefringence over the broad transparent range from 189 nm to 3500 nm.

High temperature phase BBO (alpha-BBO, a-BBO) is a negative uniaxial crystal with a large birefringence over the broad transparent range from 189 nm to 3500 nm. The physical, chemical, thermal, and optical properties of alpha-BBO crystal are similar to those of the low temperature phase beta-BBO crystal. However, there is no second order nonlinear effect in alpha-BBO crystal due to the centrosymmetry in its crystal structure and thus it has no use for second order nonlinear optical processes.

BBO（Beta-Barium Borate, β-BaB2O4）based Pockels cells operate from approximately 0.2 - 1.65 µm and are not subject to tracking degradation. BBO exhibits low piezoelectric response, good thermal stability, and low absorption. Due to the low piezoelectric coupling coefficients of BBO, BBO Pockels cells function at repetition rates of hundreds of kilohertz.

Beta-BBO crystal is an important nonlinear optical crystal with combination of unique optical properties, such as broad transmission and phase matching ranges, large nonlinear coefficient, high damage threshold and excellent optical homogeneity. The β-BBO crystal is an efficient material for the second, third and fourth harmonic generation of Nd:YAG lasers, and the best NLO material for the fifth harmonic generation at 213 nm.

Low piezoelectric ringing makes this Pockels cell attractive for the control of high-power and high-pulse repetition rate (hundreds of kilohertz, up to 1MHz) lasers.

Beta-Barium Borate (β-BBO) is an excellent nonlinear crystal with combination of a number of unique features: wide transparency region, broad phase-matching range, large nonlinear coefficient, high damage threshold, and excellent optical homogeneity. Therefore, β-BBO provides an attractive solution for various nonlinear optical applications such as OPA, OPCPA, OPO etc.β-BBO also has advantages of large thermal acceptance bandwidth, high damage threshold and small absorption, thus is very suitable for frequency conversion of high peak or average power laser radiation, e.g.

LBO (LiB3O5) is an excellent non-linear crystal of Borate-family following BBO. LBO has advantages of good ultraviolet transmittance (210-2300 nm), high laser damage threshold and large effective frequency doubling coefficient (about 3 times of KDP crystal). Therefore LBO is commonly used to produce high power second and third harmonic laser light, especially for ultraviolet lasers.LBO has large band gap and transparency region, high non-linear coupling, good chemical and mechanical properties.

Bandpass Filters are used in a variety of industries, including machine vision,factory automation, security and surveillance, license plate recognition, medical and life science, agricultural inspection, aerial imaging, motion analysis, photography and cinematography.WISOPTIC's bandpass filters include mass collection of  dielectric-coated filters, colored glass filters, neutral density filters, spatial filters, and tunable optical filter based on liquid crystal technology. Specifically speaking, e.g.

Optical Prisms are widely used to redirect light at a designated angle. They are ideal for ray deviation, or for adjusting the orientation of an image. An optical prism’s design determines how light interacts with it. When light enters an optical prism, it either reflects off an individual surface or several surfaces before exiting, or is refracted as it travels through the substrate.  WISOPTIC offers a wide range of optical prisms with various designs, substrates, or coatings.

Optical beamsplitters play a vital role in many laser-based measurement and positioning systems. Although the operation of a typical beamsplitter is conceptually simple, its performance characteristics can dramatically affect the accuracy and repeatability of the overall system. Consequently, understanding the variables that distinguish beamsplitter performance is an important step in comparing and specifying components.

Thin film polarizers are based on interference within a dielectric optical thin-film coating on a thin glass substrate. They are made from composed materials which include a polarizing film, an inner protective film, a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, and an outer protective film. Thin film polarizers are used for polarization separation, that's to say to change un-polarized beam into linear polarized beam.

Polarizing Beamsplitters (PBS) splits incident unpolarized light into two perpendicular linearly polarized light. Among them, p-polarized light passes through completely, while s-polarized light is reflected at 45 deg which makes the emitting direction of s-light vertical to p-light. Additionally, beamsplitters can be used in reverse to combine two different beams into a single one. Beamsplitters are often classified according to their construction:cube or plate.Cube PBS are fabricated using two typically right angle prisms.

Corner cube prisms are optics which act as corner reflectors. The basic operation principle is that there are internal reflections on three mutually orthogonal prism surfaces, producing a direction of a reflected beam which is nominally parallel to the direction of the incident beam – with the accuracy limited only by the accuracy of the surface orientation of the prism. Precision prisms can offer excellent parallelism of incoming and reflecting beams. It is usually specified as an angular deviation, e.g.

HGTR (High Grey Track Resistance) KTP crystal developed by hydrothermal method overcomes the common phenomenon of electrochromism of the flux-grown KTP, thus has many advantages such as high electrical resistivity, low insertion loss, low half-wave voltage, high laser damage threshold, and wide transmission band.

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.

A Pockels cell driver is a high-voltage regulated power supply, either pulse or continuous, allowing to control a birefringence of an electro-optical crystal (KTP, KD*P, BBO, etc.) in order to drive the polarization direction of the light propagating through the crystal.WISOPTIC has developed and produces a variety of Pockels cell drivers for different applications: from very simple compact devices for q-switching to precise and powerful fast models for pulse picking, cavity damping, regenerative amplifier control, etc.

RTP (Rubidium Titanyl Phosphate - RbTiOPO4) is a very desirable crystal material for E-O modulators and Q-switches. It has advantages of higher damage threshold (about 1.8 times that of KTP), high resistivity, high repetition rate, no hygroscopic or piezoelectric effect. As biaxial crystals, RTP’s natural birefringence needs to be compensated by use of two crystal rods specially oriented so that beam passes along the X-direction or Y-direction.

Polarization is an important characteristic of light. Polarizers are key optical elements for controlling your polarization, transmitting a desired polarization state while reflecting, absorbing or deviating the rest. There is a wide variety of polarizer designs, each with its own advantages and disadvantages.

Polarizer is a kind of optical filter where the light transmission depends strongly on the polarization state. Normally, light with linear polarization in a certain direction is passed, and light polarized in an orthogonal direction is either absorbed or propagated to a different direction.For other directions of linear polarization with an angle θ against the“passing”direction, the transmission exhibits a cos2 θ dependence. That can be understood by considering that linear polarization state as a linear superposition of the "passing”and the“blocked”state.Most polarizers act

Polarization optics is important for both intra and extra cavity use. By using high contrast thin film polarizers in their design, laser engineers can save weight and volume within the laser system without influencing the output. Compared with polarizing prisms, polarizers have larger incident angle and can be made with larger apertures. Compared with polarizers made from birefringent crystals, the advantage of thin film polarizers made from UVFS or N-BK7 is that they can be fabricated in very large sizes, therefore are particularly well suited for high laser powers and UV wavelengths.
