How our Oven-free Mount Solutions work
The PCMO01 allows simple and robust alignment with a small footprint and will suit almost any optical height using Ø1/2” or Ø1” post assemblies widely available at Thorlabs, Newport, CVI Melles Griot, etc. They can also be incorporated into dovetail translation stages for fine adjustment through the PPLN gratings.
Example Mounting Solutions:
M3 threaded hole allows fixture to Ø1/2” post assemblies.
M3 to M4 thread adapter allows fixture to Ø1” post assemblies.
M4 post assemblies can be fixed on to dovetail translation stages for alignment through all available gratings, as well as fine adjustment through a grating aperture.

Key Features
Covesion’s 1mm long PPLN crystals can be used without temperature control and at room temperature for femtosecond frequency doubling at around 1550nm. The PCMO01 post mount adapter is designed to hold a PC01 clip kit for 1mm long crystals, and be compatible with standard optics posts, which are widely available at optomechanics suppliers. These popular post assemblies provide a robust solution for PPLN crystal mounting.

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.
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 Oven Mount Adaptors
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.
