Beta-Barium Borate (β-BaB2O4 or BBO),discovered and developed by FIRSM, CAS (Fujian Institute of Research on the Structure of Matter, Chinese Academy of Sciences), now is manufactured and marketed by FUJIAN CASTECH CRYSTALS,INC.(CASTECH). The high-quality crystal boule is steadily available from CASTECH, who holds specialized proprietary techniques(flux-method) of the BBO crystal growth.

CASTECH’s BBO is featured by
•　Broad phase-matchable range from 409.6 nm to 3500nm;
•　Wide transmission region from 190 nm to 3500nm;
•　Large effective second-harmonic-generation (SHG) coefficient about 6 times greater than that of KDP crystal;
•　High damage threshold of 10GW/cm2 for 100ps pulse-width at 1064nm;
•　High optical homogeneity with δn≈10-6/cm;
•　Wide temperature-bandwidth of about 55℃.
