KTP

KTiOPO4 (KTP) crystal grown by hydrothermal method is a kind of nonlinear optical crystal with excellent performance. It has the characteristics of large nonlinear coefficient, large allowable temperature matching and allowable angle matching range, high anti ash trace and light damage threshold, stable chemical and mechanical properties. KTP can be used for laser frequency doubling, sum frequency, difference frequency, parametric oscillation, optical waveguide devices and electro-optic modulators. It is widely used in military scientific research, medical treatment, marine optics, laser weapons and environmental remote sensing monitoring.
