Terbium Gallium Garnet (TGG, Tb3Ga5O12) is an excellent magneto-optical crystal used in various Faraday devices (Rotator and Isolator) in the range of 400nm-1100 nm, excluding 475-500 nm.
Main Advantages:
• Large Verdet constant (40 rad T-1 m-1 @ 1064 nm)
• Low optical losses (<0.1% /cm)
• High thermal conductivity (4.5 W m-1 K-1@ 300K)
• High laser damage threshold (>1 GW/cm2)
