LightGate Series
BBO Pockels Cell
LG 2.6 / LG 3 / LG 4 / LG 5 / LG7

LightGate BBO Pockels cells are the
preferred alternative to KD*P Pockels cells
for high-average power and high repetition
rate applications. The LightGate series BBO
Pockels cell employs dual crystal geometry to
minimize drive voltage (~2.9kV quarter-wave
voltage @ 1064nm for 4mm aperture
LightGate 4). BBO Pockels cells operate from
approximately 0.2 to 1.65 µm and are not
subject to tracking degradation. Due to the
low piezoelectric coupling coefficients of
BBO, LightGate cells function at repetition
rates of hundreds of kilohertz. LightGate
Pockels cells work in regenerative amplifiers,
high pulse repetition rate micro-machining
lasers, and high-average power lasers for
material processing and metal annealing.
G&H also offers single crystal cells, extralong, reduced voltage cells, attenuated cells
for applications requiring ultra-low
piezoelectric response, and cells with watercooled apertures for high average power
operation.
