Abstract

KTP is a unique nonlinear optical material that is widely used for second harmonic generation of Nd:YAG. It also has high electrooptic coefficients and low dielectric constants that together with its high optical damage thresholds and high thermal stability make KTP superior for integrated optical applications as well.
