BaGa2GeSe6 (Barium Selenium Germanium Gallium), referred to as BGGSe crystal. It is a tripartite crystal system R3 space group with the following characteristics:

  • High laser damage threshold
  • Wide transmission range (0.5~18μm)
  • Moderate birefringence (0.08~0.11)
  • Large nonlinear coefficient (d11=23.6 pm/V)
  • Stable chemical properties
  • No tedious post-treatment such as annealing and its surface high chemical stability
  • No post-growth treatment
  • High crystal symmetry, and easy processing

Capable of being pumped using Nd: YAG laser, it has important potential for infrared laser frequency conversion such as CO and CO2 laser frequency doubling and optical parametric oscillation to generate mid- and far-infrared lasers. Due to the low dispersion nature and high damage threshold of the BGGSe crystal, it has advantages in ultra-wide mixing and ultra-short pulse output.

Features of BaGa2GeSe6
