Co:Spinel Crystals, ⌀5mm, 80% Initial Transmission
We offer Co: Spinel crystals in various sizes. Co:Spinel (Co2+:MgAl2O4 or Co:MALO) crystals are a relatively new material for passive Q-switching in lasers emitting 1.2 to 1.6 µm, especially for eye-safe lasers, but also suitable for at 1.44 µm and 1.34 µm wavelengths.
