Nonlinear crystal materials are used in various frequency conversion applications, such as second harmonic generation (SHG), sum and difference frequency generation (SFG and DFG), optical parametric generation and amplification (OPA and OPO). These materials also generate terahertz radiation pulses through optical rectification.

Periodic poling allows for quasi phase matching, which maintains phase relation of the photons throughout the crystal where they would otherwise fall out of phase. This engineered effect leads to a much higher conversion efficiency than would be found in the regular crystal.

HC Photonics (HCP) provides various high efficiency nonlinear crystals to enable full-spectrum applications, including periodically poled lithium niobate (pp-LiNbO3, PPLN) and periodically poled lithium tantalate (LiTaO3)/PPLT.

Nonlinear crystals of either β-barium borate (BBO) or lithium triborate (LBO) are used for frequency conversion of laser sources. BBO crystals feature thicknesses from 0.2 mm to 0.5 mm to minimize group velocity mismatch and are ideal for frequency doubling or tripling of Ti:sapphire and Yb:doped laser pulses. The critical and noncritical phase matching LBO crystals are ideal for second or third harmonic generation of Nd:YAG and Yb:doped lasers.
