LBO (lithium triborate) crystals grown at Cristal Laser are now available in larger sizes and with a very low bulk absorption, making makes them particularly suitable for high-power or high-energy lasers operating in the visible or the ultraviolet range of the spectrum.
Cristal Laser will present BBO (barium borate) crystals, which are used for harmonic generation (ultraviolet wavelengths) and as electro-optic material for Pockels cells, for the first time at CLEO 2007.
