Key Features
MgO:PPLN crystals for Second Harmonic Generation (SHG) of a laser source from 1530nm to 1620nm. Our MSHG1550-0.5 crystals are 0.5mm thick and 0.3-40mm long. The shortest lengths are highly popular for femtosecond pulses.
For high power lasers, we also recommend the MSHG1550-1.0 range.
All of our crystals are supplied clip-mounted, ready for use in our ovens and controller.
Have a question?- Multi-band AR coated
- Flatness <λ/4@633nm
- Parallel to ±5 minutes
- Better than 70:30 mark-to-space ratio
- Polished to 20-10 scratch dig
- Fewer than two 100μm edge chips per facet

PPLN Oven Mount Adapters
For easy integration into your optical arrangement, Covesion provides a flexible range of oven mounting adapters for post mounting solutions or flexure stage solutions, as well as a small compact mount for oven-free arrangements.
Temperature Controller
For high stability temperature control, the Covesion OC3 is a compact stand-alone bench-top unit for use with our PPLN oven range.
PPLN Ovens
For fixed wavelength applications PPLN should be maintained at a constant operating temperature for maximum conversion efficiency. In tunable wavelength applications the temperature of the crystal can be adjusted for fine wavelength tuning.
