MgO:LiNbO3(Electro-optic Crystal)

MgO:LiNbO<sub>3</sub>(Electro-optic Crystal)” class=”wp-image-4533″/></div><div class=

MgO: LiNbO3 electro-optic crystals are also known as magnesium-doped lithium niobate crystals. They have excellent overall properties. MgO-doped LN (typical doping: 5%) was developed to reduce the optical folding effect of the intrinsic material and thus can be used for higher energy applications.

MgO: LiNbO3 has special advantages for NCPM SHG, hybrid SFG, and optical parametric oscillators of Nd: Laser and thus has applications in OPO, OPA, quasi-phase-matching multipliers, and integrated waveguides.

MgO: LiNbO3 electro-optic crystals have unique advantages over LLiNbO3 crystals for NCPM multiplication, mixing, and optical parametric oscillation in Nd-doped lasers. MgO: LiNbO3 electro-optic crystals can achieve multiplication efficiencies over 65% for pulsed Nd: YAG lasers and 45% for continuous Nd: YAG lasers. Crystals are widely used in optical parametric oscillation (OPO), amplification (OPA), quasi-phase matching, and integrated optical waveguides.

Features of MgO: LiNbO3 Electro-optic Crystals:

  • High damage threshold
  • Wide range of transparency
  • Excellent EO and NLO performance
  • Good mechanical and chemical properties
  • Non-critical phase matching at room temperature
