Lithium triborate (LiB3O5, LBO) crystal
Optolita

LBO is a nonlinear optical crystal with combination of a number of unique features:

- Wide transparency region
- Broad Type 1 and Type 2 non-critical phase-matching (NCPM) range
- Small walk-off angle
- High damage threshold
- Wide acceptance angle
- High optical homogeneity

LBO is perfectly suitable for various nonlinear optical applications:

- Frequency doubling and tripling of high peak power pulsed Nd doped, Ti:Sapphire and Dye lasers
- Optical parametric oscillators (OPO) of both Type 1 and Type 2 phase-matching
- Non-critical phase-matching for conversion of CW and quasi-CW radiation.
