Non-Linear Crystals
ELAN offers large selection of Non-Linear crystals covering very wide range
from 0.2 mm to about 30 mm. This allows to create non-linear devices and obtain
coherent radiation for various advanced applications including medicine,
spectroscopy, lidars, photochemistry, material processing etc.
Main materials applied in non-linear optics, and supplied by ELAN are as
follows:
