Description of Bismuth Silicate (BSO) Crystal Substrates
Bismuth silicate (Bi12SiO20) single crystal, abbreviation BSO substrate is an excellent material with highly efficient photoconductors with low dark conductivity that allows a build-up of large photo-induced space-charges.
BSO crystal is a good photorefractive crystal with a wide range of applications. It is a light yellow photoelectric/electro-optical crystal and a photorefractive crystal. It can be used in electro-optic readout optical memory (PROM), thin-film optical waveguide, photorefractive and phase conjugation.
