Product Overview

Description


LiNbO3 Crystal is widely used as frequency doublers for wavelength > 1μm and optical parametric oscillators (OPO) pumped at 1064 nm as well as quasi-phase-matched (QPM) devices. Due to its large Electro-Optic (E-O) and Acousto-Optic (A-O) coefficients, LiNbO3 crystal is the most popular material for Pockel Cells, Q-switches and phase modulators, waveguide substrate and surface acoustic wave (SAW) wafers, etc.

CASTON Inc. provides LiNbO3 crystals with high quality and large sizes for laser frequency doublers, OPOs and quasi-phase-matched doublers as well as waveguide substrates and SAW wafers. High quality LiNbO3 components with apertures of (2-15) × (2-15) mm² and length up to 50 mm for frequency doublers and optical parametric oscillators (OPOs), 50×50×1mm³ or Dia. 3" × 1mm LiNbO3 substrate for waveguide optics and Dia. 3" SAW wafers are available with large volume and at low price.

1. Lithium niobate is used extensively in the telecoms market:
a) in mobile telephones and optical modulators. It is the material of choice for the manufacture of surface acoustic wave devices.
b) in laser frequency doubling, nonlinear optics, Pockels cells, optical parametric oscillators, Q-switching devices for lasers, other acousto-optic devices, optical switches for gigahertz frequencies
c) It is an excellent material for manufacture of optical waveguides.

2. It's also used in the making of optical spatial low-pass (anti-aliasing) filters.
