Tm:YAP crystal is one of the most important crystals for LD pumping 2μm laser. The anisotropic structure of Tm:YAP produces anisotropic emission cross section. Tm:YAP crystals with different orientations have different output wavelengths and operating forms for different functions. Compared with the physical and chemical properties of Tm:YAG, the 795nm pump absorption band of Tm:YAP matches the emission wavelength of commonly used high-power AlGaAs diodes better.

LN crystals are nonhygroscopic and have low absorption coefficient and insert loss. In addition, LN crystal can operate stably in a wide temperature range, which makes them the main EO crystal applied in military laser systems.LN electro-optic Q-switches are widely used in Er:YAG, Ho:YAG, Tm:YAG lasers, and are suitable for low-power Q-switched output, especially in laser ranging. LN Pockels cells can be very compact, and the half-wave voltage can be very low. By doping MgO in LiNbO3, the damage threshold of LN Pockels cells can been increased dramatically.

There are four main types of prisms based on the function: dispersion prism, deflection or reflection prism, rotating prism and offset prism.  Deflection, offset and rotating prisms are commonly used in imaging applications; diffusion prisms are designed for dispersive light sources and are not suitable for any application that requires high quality images.WISOPTIC offers a wide range of optical prisms with various designs, substrates, or coatings.

When choosing a window, the user should consider whether the material's transmission properties and the mechanical properties of the substrate are consistent with specific requirements of the application. Coating is another important issue for choosing a proper window. WISOPTIC offer a wide variety optical windows with different coatings, e.g. anti-reflection coated precision windows for Nd:YAG laser applications.

Nd:YVO4 (Neodymium-doped Yttrium Vanadate) is one of the best commercially available material for diode-pumped solid-state lasers, especially for lasers with low or middle power density. For example, Nd:YVO4 is a better choice than Nd:YAG for generating low-power beams in hand-held pointers or other compact lasers. In these applications, Nd:YOV4 has some advantages over Nd:YAG, e.g.

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.

A right angle prism is an optical prism designed to deviate light by 90° or 180°, depending on the orientation of the prism and the face through which light enters. The joining edges and faces are perpendicular to the base faces, and all joining faces are rectangular. They are often  preferable to plane mirrors, because they are easier to mount and align.

BBO features good optical transparency from around 200nm to over 2µm, offers a high resistance to optical damage with power handling >3GW/cm2 for 1ns pulses at 1064nm. It is possible to use BBO Pockels cells at average power levels of hundreds of watts and power densities of several kW/cm2. In addition, BBO Q-switches have very low levels of piezo-electric resonances.

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.

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.

Polarizing Beamsplitters (PBS) splits incident unpolarized light into two perpendicular linearly polarized light. Among them, p-polarized light passes through completely, while s-polarized light is reflected at 45 deg which makes the emitting direction of s-light vertical to p-light. Additionally, beamsplitters can be used in reverse to combine two different beams into a single one. Beamsplitters are often classified according to their construction:cube or plate.Cube PBS are fabricated using two typically right angle prisms.

Thin film polarizers are based on interference within a dielectric optical thin-film coating on a thin glass substrate. They are made from composed materials which include a polarizing film, an inner protective film, a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, and an outer protective film. Thin film polarizers are used for polarization separation, that's to say to change un-polarized beam into linear polarized beam.

Polarization is an important characteristic of light. Polarizers are key optical elements for controlling your polarization, transmitting a desired polarization state while reflecting, absorbing or deviating the rest. There is a wide variety of polarizer designs, each with its own advantages and disadvantages.

Polarizer is a kind of optical filter where the light transmission depends strongly on the polarization state. Normally, light with linear polarization in a certain direction is passed, and light polarized in an orthogonal direction is either absorbed or propagated to a different direction.For other directions of linear polarization with an angle θ against the“passing”direction, the transmission exhibits a cos2 θ dependence. That can be understood by considering that linear polarization state as a linear superposition of the "passing”and the“blocked”state.Most polarizers act

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.

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.

The Ceramic Laser Reflectors are high reflectance cavities used in solid state and CO2 laser systems. They are built either as a one-piece or two-piece system based on customer requirement.Ceramic cavities produce diffuse reflectance, which offers a very uniform beam profile. This diffuse reflectance also distributes light and consequently decreases hot spots in the pumped medium. These completely dense materials (e.g. Al2O3) exhibit higher strength and scratch resistance than traditional polymeric and thermoplastic materials.

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.

WISOPTIC use in-house made dye laser cells to make dye laser handpieces. Pure input beam at 532nm is required to produce output beams of 585nm/595nm (energy over 100 mJ) and 650nm/660nm (energy over 80 mJ).

Polymer-matrix Gain Medium for Pulsed Dye Laser (PDL)Polymer matrix can be used to make solid laser gain medium of dye lasers.  Compared with the commonly used liquid-state dye laser unit, the solid-state material has many advantages, such as the convenience of handling, the various options of dimensions and shapes. But the dye molecules in the polymer matrix might degradate in a limited time by triplet excitation, or even destruct permanently. To avoid this shortage, WISOPTIC provides long quality guarantee period of every piece of Dye Laser Cell/Rod made in-house.

Yb:YAG's advantage is a wide pump band and an excellent emission cross section. It is ideal for diode pumping. The broad absorption band enables Yb:YAG to maintain uninterrupted pump efficiency across the typical thermal shift of diode output. High efficiency means a relatively small dimension Yb:YAG laser crystal will produce high power output. Based on the YAG host crystal, Yb:YAG can be quickly integrated into the laser design process.
