Optical Grade
Available up to 6" diameter, single crystal optical grade material
has been developed as a next generation material. Reduced impurity
levels and development of high damage threshold material through
Magnesium doping, has resulted in sub-grain boundary free wafers.
The main applications are in optical modulation, wavelength
conversion for SHG lasers, PPLN and more.
Saw Applications
The most commonly used orientations are YZ-cut and 128°-cut most
suitable for applications in television transmission and reception
signal processing.
With the increased interest in high frequency telecommunications
signal processing for EGSM, AMPS, 3G, Bluetooth and 802.11b, there
has emerged a significant interest in rotated cuts where the
velocity of the acoustic wave is high. Accordingly 171° and 106°
doubly rotated wafers have shown an increased demand.
