Sodium-Bismuth Molibdate (NaBi(MoO4)2)

Del Mar Ventures offers newly designed acousto- and electrooptic single crystal Sodium-Bismuth Molibdate. Successful composition of valuable properties (high homogenity, low acoustical losses, wide transparency range, temperature and mechanical stability, unique electrooptical properties) makes tills crystal perspective for UHF acoustooptics, high electric fields sensors and other electro- optical applications instead of well known Lead Molibdate.
