LBO Crystal
Description
LBO crystal (Lithium triborate) is a non-linear optical material of choice for high power lasers with the following main features:
High bulk damage threshold
Small walk-off angle
Possibility of a non-critically phase-matched SHG crystals
High transparency in the UV, making it the best option for THG 355nm or THG 343nm
SFM possibility for FHG 266nm
