Product Details
ZnGeP2(Zinc germanium phosphide)crystal has many good properties
and is an mid-IR nonlinear crystal. The nonlinear susceptibility of
ZnGeP2 (ZGP) crystal is approximately 160 times large (d36~75 pm/V)
as KDP,.ZGP shows good optical transparency over the 0.7412 mm and
relatively high laser damage threshold, and is therefore well
suited for producing near infrared tunable laser. ZGP is a very
hopeful material for mid-infrared devices such as SHG, SFG, OPO,
and OPG/OPA.

Crylink
——growing crystals, linking values
We are seller of crystals. At same time, we are producer of
crystals.
It is a long and arduous process from seed crystal to the desired
single crystal, the composition of the crystal changes through
three states and eventually grows into beautiful crystals. We
witness the growth process of each crystal and clearly know
technologies of each step in the crystal growth process, which
means that we can directly provide customers with crystals that
satisfied customer requirements.
We create value. At same time, we link value.
From company to individual, we all pursue the word "value".
Individual is valuable in society, enterprise is valuable in the
industry. We cherish the existence of value. We hope to set the
enterprise’ value as start pointing, expand to the surrounding,
extend the value from the customer to the supplier. Linking
enterprise and the industry more closer, to create more value.
