KDP and DKDP crystal

Potassium Dihydrogen Phosphate (KDP) and Potassium Dideuterium Phosphate (DKDP) are used for electro-optical modulation and frequency conversion. They have High nonlinearcoefficient and high optical damage threshold, and can be used as electro-optical modulator, Q switches and shutters for high speed photography.
