Potassium titanyl phosphate crystal (KTiOPO4, KTP) is a well-known nonlinear optical material for efficient frequency conversion of laser radiation in the near- and mid-infrared range. The popularity of KTP originates in its high laser-induced damage threshold of up to 30 GW/cm2 (single-shot measurement with 8.5 ns pulses at the wavelength of 1.064 µm), wide transparency range of 0.35−4.5 µm, sufficiently high nonlinear optical coefficients of d31 = 2.2 pm/V, d32 = 3.7 pm/V and d33 = 14.6 pm/V, and possibilities of manufacturing periodically poled structures in the crystal. Presently, KTP is considered a promising material for converting infrared (IR) laser radiation to terahertz waves.
