LiIO3 (Lithium Iodate) – Nonlinear Crystal – Customized Products
Lithium Iodate (LiIO3) crystals are negative uniaxial crystals with high nonlinear optical coefficients and a wide range of transparency, resistant to radiation damage characteristics. It can be used in nonlinear acousto-optical and piezoelectric applications, in 347 nm ruby lasers, as a medium for second harmonic and parametric oscillations and as a narrow pulse, broadband ultrasonic transducer. It can also be used as a diode, triplet and mixer for low to medium power lasers.
