Potassium Titanyl Phosphate (KTiOPO4 or KTP) is an excellent nonlinear optical material suitable for use in many optical systems. It has high nonlinear coefficient and stable physical property. Its most popular application is as a frequency doubler utilizing the 1064nm output of a Nd:YAG laser and to generate 532nm laser. KTP’s properties also make it superior for electro-optic modulation, optical parametric generation.

 

 

 

  Due to the unique combination of its properties – high nonlinear coefficient, high damage threshold, non-hygroscopic, KTP can be used in both commercial and military lasers including medical and laboratory systems, range finders, designators and systems for use in semiconductor industry.
