NOTE

1. LBO has a very low susceptibility to moisture. Users are advised to provide dry conditions for both use and preservation of LBO.

2. Users are advised to cautiously protect polished surfaces of LBO.

3. CryLightengineers can select and design the best crystal for you if parameters of your laser are provided, for example, energy per pulse, pulse width and repetition rate for a pulsed laser, power for a cw laser, laser beam diameter, mode condition, divergence, wavelength tuning range, etc.

4. CryLightprovides mounts and sealed housing for LBO crystals.
