TSAG is a key isolator material for fiber lasers. As an ideal visible and infrared magneto-optic crystal, it has the advantages of high Verdet constant and excellent thermal and mechanical properties.
Main Feature
Large Verdet constant (48rad/T m @ 1064nm), about 20% higher than TGG;
Low absorption (<2500ppm/cm @ 1064nm)
high power applications
Isolator Miniaturization
Typical Application
Faraday rotators, optical isolators
