YbYAG crystal is more suitable for diode-pumping than the traditional Nd-doped systems. It can be pumped at 0.94 μm laser output. Compared with the commonly used Nd:YAG crystal, Yb:YAG crystal has a much larger absorption bandwidth to reduce thermal management requirements for diode lasers, a longer upper-state lifetime, three to four times lower thermal loading per unit pump power. Yb:YAG crystal is expected to replace Nd:YAG crystal for high power diode-pumped lasers and other potential applications.

A band pass filter is a device that passes frequencies within a certain range and rejects (attenuates) frequencies outside that range, and it’s used to selectively transmit a portion of the spectrum while rejecting all other wavelengths.

Potassium Gadolinium Tungstate (KGd(WO₄)₂) crystal is an excellent stimulated Raman laser crystal with characteristics such as a wide light transmission range, good thermal conductivity, high damage threshold, large Raman shift coefficient, and high Raman gain. It can maintain high conversion efficiency and beam quality during the Raman frequency conversion process. The KGW crystal can withstand high pump power and is suitable for pump lights of various wavelengths, making it widely used in Raman lasers, laser frequency conversion, medical imaging, photodynamic therapy, environmental monitoring, spectroscopy research, material processing, and other fields.

KDP Potassium Dihydrogen Phosphate and KD*P or DKDP Potassium Dideuterium Phosphate are among the most widely-used commercial NLO materials, characterized by good UV transmission, high damage threshold, and high birefringence, though their NLO coefficients are relatively low. They are usually used for doubling, tripling and quadrupling of a Nd:YAG laser under the room temperature. In addition, they are also excellent electro-optic crystals with high electro-optic coefficients, widely used as electro-optical modulators, such as Q-switches, Pockels Cells, etc.

Dispersion Prisms are used in applications that require separating the incident light into its component wavelengths. For example, when white light enters a Dispersion Prism, it is separated into its three components: red, green, and blue. Dispersion Prisms are ideal for spectroscopy or laser tuning.

Colored glass filters are optical components that control incident wavelength by distributing an optical absorbing substance in glass.

HGO have advanced coating machines which can meet endusers’different application requirement. We can very high laser induced damaged threshold coating with IAD, EB and IBS coating techniques , also Cr-Au, Aluminum and silver mental coating can also be available in HGO. Customers are very welcome to contact with us for further information.

Fused silica window, with low thermal expansion,  providing stability and resistance to thermal shock over large temperature excursions, wide thermal operating range and high laser damage threshold, is a better choice for transmission from UV to IR.
