Pyroelectric Lithium Tantalate Detector Material LiTaO3 Single Crystal
LiTaO3 is an E-O crystal widely used for E-O devices, due to its good optical NLO and E-O properties, as well as high damage threshold. CRYSTRO supplies high quality LiTaO3 boules,ingots and wafers with the following specifications for standard applications,diameter upon to 6 inch. We can also offer other specifications upon request.
Application:Lithium tantalate (LT) is used as SAW device which screens electromagnetic waves and only picks up specific frequencies. SAW device is used in mobile communication devices, including auto mobiles and TV and VTR tuners.
It's also a Pyroelectric lithium tantalate detector elements can be used in Infrared detectors ,Thermal infrared emitters.
.Crystro's LiTaO3 crystal is grown by Czochralski method.Max diameter reach 4inch,it's now the biggest size in this filed,we can custom size and specs ,rougness<0.5nm.
Other optical single crystals like GGG,SGGG,TGG,TSAG are also available.
Crystro provides:
- Excellent photoelectric property
- High Damage Threshold
- High Curie Temperature
