KTP for SHG of Nd:lasers 
KTP is the most commonly used material for frequency doubling of Nd:YAG lasers and other Nd-doped lasers, particularly at the low or medium power density.

KTP for OPO 
As an efficient OPO crystal pumped by the fundamental and second harmonics of a Nd:YAG or Nd:YLF laser, KTP plays an important role in parametric sources for tunable output from visible (0.6mm) to mid-IR (4.5mm). NCPM KTP OPO pumped by 1064nm, the signal output is around eye safe wavelength, find applications in eye-safe devices. The NCPM KTP OPO keeps the KTP crystal fixed in X-axis and tunes the pumping wavelength. If 1064nm pumping source, the output will be at 1.57mm (signal) and 3.3 mm (idler).
