Characterized by the excelent UV transmission, high damage threshold, and high birefringence, KDP (Potassium Dihydrogen Phosphate) are commonly used commercial NLO materials for doubling, tripling and quadrupling of Nd:YAG laser at room temperature or an elevated temperature. KDP are also excellent electro-optic (EO) crystals with high EO coefficients, thus popularly used as EO modulators and Pockels cells for Q-switched lasers. But KDP crystal has apparent disadvantage of being highly hygroscopic, therefore, protective coating and transmitting windows are recommended to secure the polished crystal surfaces.
