AI Overview
Lithium Niobate (
or LN) and Magnesium Oxide-doped Lithium Niobate (
or MgO:LN) are key electro-optic (EO) and nonlinear crystals utilized for high-performance laser modulation, Q-switching, and frequency conversion. MgO:LN offers a higher photorefractive damage threshold than pure LN, making it superior for high-power green/blue light applications.
Key Features & Applications
- Properties: Both possess high EO and nonlinear coefficients.
- MgO Doping: Adding 5% MgO significantly improves resistance to photorefractive damage (laser damage) and reduces optical folding effects.
- Applications: EO Q-switch, modulators, Optical Parametric Oscillators (OPO), Second Harmonic Generation (SHG), and Quasi-Phase-Matching (QPM).
- Performance: achievesSHG efficiency for pulsed Nd:YAG lasers andfor continuous wave (CW) lasers.
- Modifications: Custom, x-cut, or z-cut, with AR coatings or gold electrodes for Pockels cells.
Key Differences
