Introduction
Rubidium Titanyl Phosphate (RbTiOPO4 or RTP) is an isomorph of KTP crystal which is used in nonlinear and Electro-Optical applications. It has advantages of high damage threshold (about 1.8 times of KTP), high resistivity, high repetition rate, no hygroscopy and no induced piezo-electric effect with electrical signals up to 60 kHz. Its transmission range is 350 nm to 4500 nm.
