MgO:LiNbO3 - Magnesium Doped Lithium Niobate
Introduction
Compared with LiNbO3 crystal, MgO:LiNbO3 crystal exhibits its particular advantages for NCPM frequency doubling (SHG) of Nd:Lasers, mixing (SFG) and optical parametric oscillators (OPOs). The SHG efficiencies of over 65% for pulsed Nd:YAG lasers and 45% for cw Nd:YAG lasers have been achieved by MgO: LiNbO3 crystals, respectively. MgO: LiNbO3 is also a good crystal for optical parametric oscillators (OPOs) and amplifiers (OPAs), quasi-phase-matched doubler and integrated waveguide.
CASTECH's MgO:LiNbO3 is featured by:
- High damage threshold;
- Non-critical phase matching (NCPM) at room temperature;
- Broad transparency range;
- Excellent E-O and NLO properties;
- Good mechanical and chemical properties.
MgO: LiNbO3 has similar effective nonlinear coefficient to pure LiNbO3. Its Sellmeier equations (for 5 mol% MgO dopant) are (λ in µm):
no2 (λ) = 4.8762 + 0.11554 / (λ2 - 0.04674) - 0.033119 × λ2
ne2 (λ) = 4.5469 + 0.094779 / (λ2 - 0.04439) - 0.026721 × λ2
CASTECH offers high quality MgO:LiNbO3 with custom dimensions. AR coating is available upon request.
