Barium Titanate (BTO) - BaTiO3
BaTiO3 is a crystal used for its photorefractive properties and large electro-optic coefficients. For optical information processing and computing applications, the high beam coupling gain and self pumped phase conjugate reflectivity are advantageous. BaTiO3is also known for low absorption loss in visible and near infrared range, high resolution and fidelity of phase conjugate.
Lithium Niobate - LiNbO3
Crystals have good strength and properties for electro-optical, pyroelectric, and SAW devices. Crystal wafers have exceptional surface finishes and accurately oriented surfaces and edges, cut to standard orientations. Non linear crystals available as wafers or boules 2", 3" and 4" diameter. Applications include SAW devices, SHG and OPO.
Lithium Tantalate - LiTaO3
Crystals have good strength and properties for electro- optical, pyroelectric, and SAW devices. Crystal wafers have exceptional surface finishes and accurately oriented surfaces and edges, cut to standard orientations.
