    BBO Crystals | Altechna - Custom Laser Optics & Technologies
    α-BBO (Alpha Barium Borate) crystals are negative birefringent materials with a wide optical transmission window from approximately 190nm to 3500nm, making them excellent for applications requiring high-power UV or visible light . They offer good mechanical and thermal stability, a high laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT), and are commonly used to make polarizers and other optics for lasers and UV applications. However, unprotected surfaces require a protective coating (often MgF2) to prevent degradation from ambient moisture.
    Key Properties of α-BBO Crystals
    • Optical Transmission: A very wide transmission range from UV to IR, approximately 190nm to 3500nm.
    • Birefringence: A negative birefringent material with a large birefringent coefficient, meaning light polarized in different directions experiences different refractive indices.
    • Nonlinearity: Highest nonlinearity among UV nonlinear crystals.
    • Damage Threshold: High laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT).
    • Mechanical Properties: Excellent mechanical stability and good optical homogeneity.
    • Thermal Stability: Stable up to a high-temperature phase transition point, and generally stable up to around 925°C.
    Applications
    • Polarizers: Widely used in Glan-Taylor, Glan-Laser, and Glan-Thompson polarizers, especially for high-power lasers.
    • UV Optics: Ideal for high-power UV polarization optics due to its high UV transparency.
    • Ultrafast Applications: Can be manufactured as ultra-thin crystals for applications involving extremely short pulses (<10 fs).
    • Walk-off Beamsplitters: Used in beamsplitters where beams are separated based on their polarization.
