LBO

LBO (Lithium Triborate) is a nonlinear crystal with high optical homogeneity, broad angular and temperature bandwidth, and high damage threshold. It has a wide range of applications in nonlinear optics, including frequency doubling, mixing, and optical parametric oscillation. LBO crystal is also highly resistant to moisture and provides excellent resistance to optical and mechanical shocks.
