Abstract

In the paper, taking into account thermal issues caused by the optical absorption of elctro-optic crystal in the high repetition and high average power laser, and establishing the thermodynamic model of electro-optic crystal and using the finite element analysis software for thermodynamic analysis of BBO electro-optic crystals, the temperature distribution is obtained, and the thermal focal length and depolarization loss is calculated.
