Product Description

Descriptions:
a-BBO Crystal alpha -Barium Borate (α-BaB2O4) is a negative uniaxial crystal which has large birefringence over a broad transparent range of 190nm to 3500nm. α-BBO is widely used for fabrication of polarizers, polarizing beam displacers, phase retarders, birefringent plates, and time delay compensators especially those for UV and high power lasers.

 


Main applications:
1) High power Beam displacers for isolators.
2) High power Polarizer
3) Time delay compensators
Advantages:
4) High UV transmittance
5) Large birefringence
6) High damage threshold
