High temperature phase of α-BBO Crystal (BaB2O4)
is one of the excellent birefringent crystals. It is characterized by
large birefringent coefficient and wide transmission window ranged from
189nm to 3500nm. Due to its high chemical stability and medium hardness,
α-BBO is fabricated easily into many kinds of optical components.The
physical, chemical, thermal and optical properties of α-BBO are similar

Barium Borate exists in three major crystalline forms: alpha, beta, and
gamma. The low-temperature beta phase converts into the alpha phase upon
heating to 925 °C. β-BBO differs from α-BBO by the
positions of the barium ions within the crystal. Both phases are
birefringent, however α-BBO has centric symmetry and thus
does not has the same nonlinear properties as β-BBO.α-BBO is a negative uniaxial crystal with a large birefringence over the broad transparent range from 189 nm to 3500 nm.

High
temperature phase BBO (alpha-BBO, a-BBO) is a negative uniaxial crystal
with a large birefringence over the broad transparent range from 189 nm
to 3500 nm. The physical, chemical, thermal, and optical properties of
alpha-BBO crystal are similar to those of the low temperature phase beta-BBO crystal.
However, there is no second order nonlinear effect in alpha-BBO crystal
due to the centrosymmetry in its crystal structure and thus it has no
use for second order nonlinear optical processes.
