LTF Lithium Terbium Fluoride

LTF lithium terbium fluoride (LiTbF 4 ) crystal has a tetragonal scheelite structure, the c-axis is the optical axis, and has the characteristics of large Verdet constant, low bulk absorption coefficient, negative thermo-optic coefficient and small nonlinear coefficient. 

Product Description

It is a magneto-optic crystal material with excellent performance. When LTF crystals are used in high-power Faraday rotators and magneto-optical isolators, they can overcome the problems of traditional TGG crystals, such as the decrease in isolation caused by the "temperature rise" caused by the large volume absorption coefficient, and the deterioration of the quality of the front-end beam. After years of technical research, the company has realized the stable production of LTF crystals with a diameter of 2 inches, and can provide users with customized LTF crystal products of various sizes and specifications.
