AI Overview
-BBO (alpha-Barium Borate) is a premier material for high damage threshold beam displacers, particularly in UV and high-power applications. It offers high power handling (
@
), wide transparency (190–3500 nm), and high birefringence, allowing superior separation of orthogonally polarized rays compared to lower-birefringence materials.
Key Characteristics of
-BBO Beam Displacers:
- High Damage Threshold: Ideal for high-power lasers, with damage thresholds often reaching to().
- Wide Transparency: Useful from UV to IR (190–3500 nm), with excellent stability in the UV spectrum.
- High Birefringence: Provides efficient separation of ordinary (-ray) and extraordinary (-ray) beams with extinction ratios often exceeding 100,000:1.
- Physical Properties: High chemical and thermal stability, making it superior to calcite for high-repetition-rate applications.
