KTiOAsO₄ (potassium titanyl arsenate) is an excellent nonlinear material in the KTP crystal family. Compared with KTP, KTA has a larger nonlinear optical coefficient and broader angular and temperature phase-matching bandwidths. It can be pumped by an Nd:YAG laser (1064nm) to achieve noncritical phase matching. Its electrical conductivity and ionic conductivity are lower than those of KTP, while its thermal conductivity is high. It does not produce thermal lensing under high-power laser pumping and is suitable for high-repetition-rate, high-energy mid-infrared output. KTA has far lower absorption loss than KTP over 3000nm~5000nm, addressing the KTP absorption peak near 3.4μm. It also has relatively high resistance to optical damage and is widely used in mid-infrared optical parametric oscillators (OPO).
