Highly doped (50%) Erbium YAG is a well-known laser source for producing 2940nm emission, commonly used in medical (e.g. cosmetic skin resurfacing), and dental (e.g. oral surgery) applications due to the strong water and hydroxapatite absorption at this wavelength.Low doped (< 1%) Erbium YAG hase been studied as an efficient means to generate high power and high energy 1.6 micron 'eye-safe' laser emission thru 2 level resonant pumping schemes.

Optical filter is usually a component with a wavelength-dependent transmittance or reflectance. It's used to selectively transmit or reject a wavelength or range of wavelengths. Filters with particularly weak wavelength dependence of the transmittance are called neutral density filters. The general applications of optical filters include fluorescence microscopy, spectroscopy, clinical chemistry, machine vision inspection, etc. Bandpass interference filters are designed to transmit a portion of the spectrum, while rejecting all other wavelengths.

When classified by coatings, Optical Mirrors consist of dielectric mirrors and metallic mirrors. Dielectric mirror is an optical mirror made of thin layers of dielectric coating layers deposited on an optical substrate (UVFS or BK7). WISOPTIC offer dielectric laser mirrors for laser lines, for narrowband or broadband wavelength ranges covering spectrum from UV to IR. Metallic mirrors are coated with protected gold, silver, or aluminum. Metallic mirrors are widely used due to a moderate level of reflection over a very broad spectral range.

KTP (KTiOPO4) is one of the most commonly used nonlinear optical materials. For example, it’s regularly used for frequency doubling of Nd:YAG lasers and other Nd-doped lasers, particularly at low or medium-power density. KTP is also widely used as OPO, EOM, optical wave-guide material, and in directional couplers.KTP exhibits a high optical quality, broad transparency range, wide acceptance angle, small walk-off angle, and type I and II non-critical phase-matching (NCPM) in a wide wavelength range.

Wisoptic’s optical mirrors are available for use with light in the UV,
VIS, and IR spectral regions. Optical mirrors with a metallic coating
have high reflectivity over the widest spectral region, whereas mirrors
with a broadband dielectric coating have a narrower spectral range of
operation; the average reflectivity throughout the specified region is
greater than 99%.

Polarizing Beamsplitters (PBS) are
designed to split light by polarization state rather than
by wavelength or intensity. PBS are often used in
semiconductor or photonics instrumentation to transmit p-polarized light
while reflecting s-polarized light. Optical isolators use PBS to eliminate feedback-induced damage. PBS are typically designed for 0° or 45° angle of incidence
with a 90° separation of the beams, depending on the configuration.WISOPTIC offers a wide variety of PBS in a
range of configurations including plate, cube, or lateral displacement.

Cr:YAG (Chromium doped Ytterium Aluminum Garnet, Cr:Y3Al5O12) crystal is an excellent material for passive Q-switching of Nd:YAG and other Nd or Yb doped lasers in the wavelength range of 0.8 to 1.2 μm. One of the remarkable features of Cr:YAG is its high damage threshold (500-1000 MW/cm2). Its absorption band extends from 800 nm to 1200 nm and peaks at around 1060nm with a very large absorption cross section.

YLF is birefringent, which eliminates thermally induced depolarization
loss. The gain and the emission wavelength of Nd:YLF are polarization
dependent: there is the stronger 1047nm ray for π polarization, and a
weaker one at 1053nm for σ polarization. Nd:YLF provides alternative to the more common Nd:YAG laser crystal for near IR
operation.

Optical Prisms are widely used to redirect light at a designated angle. They are ideal for ray deviation, or for adjusting the orientation of an image. An optical prism’s design determines how light interacts with it. When light enters an optical prism, it either reflects off an individual surface or several surfaces before exiting, or is refracted as it travels through the substrate. WISOPTIC offers a wide range of optical prisms with various designs, substrates, or coatings.

A corner cube (or cube corner), also known as a retroreflector, is an optical
component with the unique ability to return an incoming beam of light
directly towards its point of origin regardless of the beam's angle of
entry. This property makes this prism type ideal for a wide variety of
applications, such as laser resonator cavities, land surveying, ground
based range-finding, satellite communications and space vehicle docking.Wisoptic offer a wide variety of retroreflectors at competitive prices and lead times, and are able to accommodate the most demanding requirements.

Dye Laser Handpiece are devices that screw onto the end of the laser's arm and convert the energy that the laser produces into different, new wavelengths of light.The two most common dye handpiece wavelengths are 585 nm and 650 nm,
which attach to Q-switched Nd:YAG lasers. For these wavelengths to be
produced, the Nd:YAG's 1064 nm wavelength is frequency-doubled to
produce the 532 nm wavelength, which is then converted by the dye
handpieces to produce either 585 nm or 650 nm. WISOPTIC use in-house made dye laser cells to make dye laser handpieces.

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.

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

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.
