Potassium Titanyle Arsenate(KTiOAsO4, KTA)
Potassium Titanyle Arsenate(KTiOAsO4), or KTA crystal, is an excellent nonlinear optical crystal for Optical Parametric Oscillation (OPO) application. It has better non-linear optical and electro-optical coefficients, significantly reduced absorption in the 2.0-5.0 µm region, broad angular and temperature bandwidth, low dielectric constants. And its low ionic conductivities result in higher damage threshold compared with KTP .
CASTECH offers KTA
Crystal length from 0.1mm to 30mm and size up to 15x15x30mm
AR-coating from visible to 3300nm
Re-polishing, re-coating service
Fast delivery(10 working days for polished only, 15 working days for AR-coated)
