Potassium titanyle arsenate (KTiOAsO4), or KTA, is a nonlinear optical crystal for Optical Parametric Oscillation (OPO) application. It has good non-linear optical and electro-optical properties, e.g. significantly reduced absorption in band range of 2.0-5.0 µm, broad angular and temperature bandwidth, low dielectric constants.

 

Primary applications of KTA crystals:

  • OPO for mid IR generation – up to 4 µm;
  • Sum and Difference Frequency Generation in mid IR range;
  • Electro-optical modulation and Q-switching;

EKSMA OPTICS offers:

  •  Standard KTA crystals ex-stock and crystals with size up to 15x15x30 mm under request;
  • AR and BBAR coatings for VIS-IR and mid IR ranges;
  • Standard and customized mounts and housings; Technical consulting.
