Oven and Temperature Controller

Newlight Photonics Inc. provides ovens and precision temperature controllers to hold  crystals and maintain them at an elevated temperature. Such a high temperature is often required for noncritical phase matching (NCPM) or to avoid optical damage of crystals.

Part Number: OVN6421
Power Consumption: 50W
AC Voltage : 110V 
Temperature Sensor: RTD Pt100
Operating Temperature Range: Room Temperature - 200°C
Temperature Stability:  0.1°C @148°C  (Standard Deviation)
Host Crystal Dimension: 2x2x5mm to 6x6x30mm
Oven External Size: φ50x55mm

Crystals may be pre-mounted in the oven upon customer's request.

Operation Manual

Recommended mounts for quick setting up of the oven head:

  Thorlabs V-Mount C1503  or
  Newport Optical Mount U-200A

Specifications are subject to change without notice.

Custom-made oven and temperature controller are also available for your specific applications.  Ovens for Brewster cut crystals.

Application Examples

Noncritical Phasematching

  LBO: SHG of Nd:YAG/YLF/YVO4 lasers (148-170°C),
  OPO pumped by SHG of Nd:YAG/YLF/YVO4 or Ti:Sapphire lasers (RT-200°C)
  KNbO3: SHG of 860-950nm (y-cut) (20-180°C),
              SHG of 990-1064nm (z-cut) (20-188°C)
  LiNbO3: SHG of Nd:YAG/YLF/YVO4 lasers (120°C)
  KD*P: SHG of 532 nm (52.1 °C), ADP: SHG of 532 nm (51.2°C)

Reduction of optical damage

   KTP, LiNbO3: Kept warm at 80°C

Protection from moisture

   BBO, KD*P, KDP: Kept warm at well above the room temperature.
