YCOB Crystal YCa4O(BO3)3 Description
YCOB Crystal YCa4O(BO3)3 stands as a premier choice among nonlinear optical crystals, rivaling the performance of well-known BBO (Beta Barium Borate) and LBO (Lithium Triborate) crystals in terms of its nonlinear optical coefficient. It boasts impressive effective second and third-order frequency multiplication coefficients, achieving levels that are 2.8 and 1.4 times that of KDP (Potassium Dihydrogen Phosphate), respectively.
YCOB Crystal exhibits an exceptional damage threshold ranging from 2000 to 2500 GW/cm², making it highly resistant to optical damage. This crystal offers a wide acceptable angle and temperature range, enhancing its versatility in various optical systems. Unlike some other nonlinear optical materials, YCOB is non-deliquescent, ensuring long-term stability and performance. Given these attributes, YCOB crystal is viewed as having significant potential for applications in the generation of blue-green light and UV band optical frequencies. Its combination of high damage threshold, large aperture, and stable properties positions YCOB as a crystal with promising application prospects in advanced optical systems and technologies.

YCOB Crystal YCa4O(BO3)3 Application
- Frequency Doubling (Second Harmonic Generation): YCOB is widely used in laser displays, laser pointers, and medical devices.
- Optical Parametric Oscillation (OPO): Due to its broad angular and temperature acceptance ranges, YCOB is an excellent material for OPO devices, which are used to generate tunable laser light across a wide range of wavelengths. This tunability is critical for spectroscopy, laser surgery, and environmental monitoring.
- Frequency Tripling and Mixing: YCOB's effective second and third-order frequency multiplication coefficients allow it to be used for frequency tripling and mixing applications. This capability is beneficial in generating ultraviolet light for photolithography, semiconductor manufacturing, and scientific research.
- Terahertz (THz) Wave Generation: The crystal's large aperture and high damage threshold make it suitable for generating THz waves, which have applications in security scanning, non-destructive testing, and medical imaging.
- High-Power Laser Systems: The high damage threshold of YCOB in the femtosecond regime makes it particularly valuable for high-power laser applications, including materials processing, micromachining, and laser therapy in medical applications.
