RTP Nonlinear crystal
RTP (rubidium titanyl phosphate) is an excellent nonlinear optical crystal and an isomorph of potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP). It has a large nonlinear optical coefficient and broad near- and mid-infrared transmission. Its high resistivity, low piezoelectric effect, high laser damage threshold, and resistance to deliquescence support widespread use in electro-optic modulation, laser Q-switching, and other optoelectronic technologies. Pumping noncritically phase-matched cuts of RTP and its isomorphs with lasers in the 1.0 μm band can efficiently generate eye-safe laser output at 1.5~1.6 μm, an important application in nonlinear optical frequency conversion.
