Introduction

TGG is an excellent magneto-optical crystal used in various Faraday devices (Rotator and Isolator) in the range of 400nm-1100nm, excluding 475-500nm.It has large magneto-optical constant, low light loss, high thermal conductivity and high laser damage threshold. It is widely used in multi-stage amplification, ring type and seed injection lasers such as YAG and Ti-doped sapphire.

Main Advantages:

  • Large Verdet constant (35 Rad T-1m-1).
  • Low optical losses (<0.1%/cm)
  • High thermal conductivity (7.4W m-1K-1).
  • High laser damage threshold (>1GW/cm2).
