Introduction 532nm solid-state lasers are widely used in industry and medicine. In the field of scientific research, continuous, high-stability 532nm green light and kilohertz, high-energy nanosecond 532nm laser are the most ideal pump source solutions for titanium sapphire oscillators and amplifiers respectively. The basic route is to use an 808nm/880nm semiconductor laser as the pump source, generate a 1064nm laser in an Nd:YVO4 or Nd:YAG crystal, and then perform frequency doubling (SHG) through a frequency doubling crystal to generate a continuous or pulsed 532nm laser.

WISOPTIC is using its newly-set coating machine to do in-house vacuum coatings on crystals and optical components.With our own coating machine and technique, we can provide customers products with excellent quality, e.g. higher surface quality, higher transmittance, and higher LIDT etc.Sorts of dielectric coatings (e.g. AR, HR, PR) are available for crystals (KDP/DKDP, KTP, RTP, BBO, LBO, LN, Nd:YAG, etc) and optical components (laser windows, mirrors, PBS, etc).

1.2 Near-stoichiometric Lithium Tantalate Crystal Most of the lithium tantalate crystals currently used are grown from melts with the same composition ratio, which is generally called the same composition lithium tantalate (CLT). However, large number of defects affect the physical properties of the CLT crystal, so researchers have conducted study on near-stoichiometric lithium tantalate (NSLT) with less material defects and better physical properties.

3 The main application of lithium tantalate crystal3.2 OscillatorAn oscillator is an energy conversion device that converts DC power into AC power with a certain frequency. This circuit is called an oscillation circuit. The oscillator achieves free oscillation through the mutual conversion between magnetic field energy and electric field energy.Oscillators are divided into RC oscillators, LC oscillators and crystal oscillators. The crystal oscillator has a piezoelectric effect, and the crystal will deform when a voltage is applied to the two poles of the wafer.

Conclusion Lithium tantalate material has a large pyroelectric coefficient, high Curie temperature, small dielectric loss factor, low heat melt per unit volume, small relative dielectric constant, and stable performance. It is a good ferroelectric and piezoelectric material. It also has extraordinary properties. Because of its linear optical properties, lithium tantalate (LT crystal, www.wisoptic.com) has gradually become a popular material used in communications, electronics and other fields.

3 The main application of lithium tantalate crystal3.1 SAW Wave filterPeng et al. used ion etching to process lithium tantalate (LT) crystals to obtain a high fundamental frequency crystal resonator. They used this crystal resonator to design a high-frequency broadband filter, which improved the operating frequency and reliability of the filter and increased the number of The bandwidth of the filter ensures the high temperature stability and low insertion loss of the filter.

2.3 Lithium tantalate single crystal filmAfter the 1980s, thin film preparation technology has developed rapidly. Currently, the commonly used preparation technologies of lithium tantalate single crystal (www.wisoptic.com) thin film mainly include chemical vapor deposition, physical vapor deposition, magnetron sputtering and sol-gel method.The chemical vapor deposition method synthesizes a thin film on a substrate through a chemical reaction and accurately controls the chemical composition of the product. It has the characteristics of low stress and good quality.

2. Fabrication of Lithium Tantalate Crystal2.1 Fabrication of same composition lithium tantalate crystalThe same composition Lithium tantalate (CLT) crystals are often fabricated by mixing high-purity tantalum pentoxide with high-purity lithium carbonate at a stoichiometric ratio of 0.95:1 (molar ratio), and are prepared by the crucible pulling method. The quality of LiTaO3 crystal (www.wisoptic.com) is generally affected by factors such as raw material ratio, pulling speed, seed crystal quality, crucible shape and type.

2.2 Fabrication of lithium tantalate crystal with near stoichiometric ratioThe preparation of near-stoichiometric lithium tantalate (NSLT) crystals is difficult. The current methods mainly include: the double crucible method, the flux pulling method, the float zone method and the gas phase exchange equilibrium method. 2.2.1 The double crucible methodIn the double crucible method, the melt material needs to be continuously added to the crucible during the crystal preparation process to keep the melt composition unchanged.

04 Theoretical study of thermal properties The above experiment shows that the BBO crystal (www.wisoptic.com) generates serious heat in the process of frequency quadrupling. It is known that the energy band gap of the BBO crystal is 6.56 eV, while the single photon energy of 266 nm and 532 nm lasers is 4.66 eV and 2.33 eV respectively. Theoretically, the crystal does not have single photon absorption of 266 nm and 532 nm lasers.
