KD*P Crystals for E-O Devices

KD*P crystal is widely used for electro-optical Pockels cells. These Pockels cells may be placed in a laser cavity for Q-switching laser output in the range of 0.3 to  1.1 µm. To reduce the reflection loss on surfaces, KD*P crystal can be immersed in index matching fluid and sealed  with AR coated glass windows.
