Features & Benefits:

High Electro-Optic Coefficient: KTP crystals exhibit a high electro-optic coefficient, making them highly responsive to changes in the applied voltage. This property allows for rapid modulation of light passing through the crystal.
Wide Transparency Range: KTP Pockels cells have a wide transparency range, typically from the ultraviolet (UV) to the near-infrared (NIR) region of the electromagnetic spectrum. This broad range makes them suitable for various wavelengths.
Nonlinear Optical Properties: KTP crystals also have nonlinear optical properties, which can be advantageous for applications like optical parametric oscillators (OPOs) and frequency conversion.
Low Absorption: These Pockels cells typically have low absorption coefficients, ensuring minimal energy loss and high transmission of incident light.
