KNBO3

KNBO3 possesses the largest nonlinear coefficients for wavelength conversion of all        commercially available inorganic materials. Strong, natural birefringence (ne-no=0.22)     combined with high nonlinearity make KNBO3 one of the most versatile materials for        SHG, SFM and OPO nonlinear conversation.
