BBO is an excellent non-linear crystal for frequency-doubling (SHG) of Visible and Near IR laser light, OPO/OPG/OPA pumped by ultrafast pulses of wavelengths in the Near IR to UV, and sum-frequency mixing (SFM) into the Visible to the deep UV. BBO is also one of the few practical crystal for use below 500 nm in SHG and SFM, it can be widely used in medical, military and meteorology fields.
Advantages:
High damage threshold
Broad phase matchable range from 409.6nm to 3500nm
Wide transmission region from 190nm to 3500nm
High optical homogeneity with n10-6/cm
Wide temperature-bandwidth of about 55°C
Large effective second-hamonic-generation coefficient about 6 times greater than KDP crystal
Applications:
Second, third, fourth and fifth harmonic generation of Nd:YAG
Frequency-doubling, -tripling and -mixing of dye lasers
Optical parametric amplifiers (OPA) and optical parametric oscillators (OPO)
Second, third, fourth and fifth harmonic generation of Ti: sapphire and alexandrite
Frequency-doubling of Argon ions, Cu vapor and ruby lasers
