Yttrium vanadate (YVO₄) is a positive uniaxial crystal grown by the Czochralski method. Its good mechanical and physical properties, broad transmission range and large birefringence make it ideal for optical polarization components and an excellent synthetic alternative to calcite and rutile. Applications include fiber isolators and circulators, guangdong displacers (source term), Glan polarizers and other polarization optics.
