LBO > Lithium Triborate (LiB3O5 LBO)

Introduction

Banner Union provide the high quality LBO ◇Broad transparency range from 160nm to 2600nm ◇High optical homogeneity (dn»10-6/cm) and being free of inclusion ◇ Relatively large effective SHG coefficient (about three times that of KDP) ◇ High damage threshold ◇Wide acceptance angle and small walk-off ◇ Type I and type II non-critical phase matching (NCPM) in a wide wavelength range ◇ Spectral NCPM near 1300nm.

Notes: 

LBO has a very low susceptibility to moisture. Users are advised to provide dry conditions for both the use and preservation of LBO.

Polished surfaces of LBO requires precautions to prevent any damage.
