Cr4+:YAG (Y3Al5O12) crystal is ideal for passive Q-switch operation of Nd:YAG and other Nd3+ or Yb3+ doped laser crystals in the wavelength range of 900 nm to 1200 nm. Passive Q-switches or saturable absorbers provide high power laser pulses without electro-optic Q-switches, thereby reducing the package size and eliminating a high voltage power supply. A remarkable feature of Cr4+:YAG is the high damage threshold of >10 J/cm2@1064 nm, 10 ns. Its absorption band extends from 900 nm to 1200 nm and peaks around 1060 nm with a very large absorption cross-section.

IPL Filter is the key optical element for IPL (intense Pulsed Light) machine, which blocks the UV wave and transmits the useful wave from 400nm to 1200nm for laser equipment, such as photo-rejuvenation hair removal, vascular and acne treatment, skin rejuvenation.

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.

α-BBO (α-BaB2O4) is a negative uniaxial crystal which has large birefringence over a broad transparent range of 190nm to 3500nm. α-BBO is an excellent crystal especially in UV and high power applications. The physical, chemical, thermal, and optical properties of alpha-BBO crystal are similar to those of Beta-BBO. 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. Instead, alpha-BBO is widely used for fabrication of polarizers, polarizing beam displacers, phase retarders, birefringent plates, and time delay compensators especially those for UV and high power lasers.

Corner Cube Prism also called Retroreflector.It has three mutually perpendicular surfaces and a hypotenuse face. Light entering through the hypotenuse is reflected by each of the three surfaces in turn and will emerge through the hypotenuse face parallel to the entering beam regardless of the orientation of the incident beam. For its special performance, it is often used to the distance measurement, optical signal process and laser.

C-lens are specifically designed for fiber optics applications such as collimator, isolator, switch, collimator array and laser assembly. Compare to other gradient index lens, C-lens have several advantages including low cost, low insertion loss in long working distance, and wide working distance range. With our experienced optical design engineers, HG OPTRONICS can also provide custom designed C-lens per customer's requirement.

Color glass changed the spectral properties of optical radiation. They therefore allow scientific experiments and industrial applications where that change is necessary. You can combine color glass filters together to change the bandpass or to increase the attenuation. Color glass change the spectral properties of optical radiation.

Beamsplitter Cubes are constructed by cemented two right angle prisms.  The hypotenuse of one prism is coated with polarization dielectric coating.
