GAMDAN Optics is a U.S.-based manufacturer specializing in
nonlinear crystals and laser crystals engineered for high-energy and high-power laser systems. From our San Jose, California headquarters and crystal-growth facility, we manage the full production workflow—including crystal growth, precision fabrication, and advanced UV and deep-UV coating development—to ensure complete quality control, material traceability, and consistently superior optical performance.
Our product portfolio includes LBO crystals, BBO crystals, KTP crystals, KGW crystals, and custom-doped YVO4 crystals, each optimized for demanding industrial, scientific, and defense laser applications. We deliver super-low-absorption materials, UV-grade super-polished surfaces, and high-damage-threshold coatings that support long lifetime, thermal stability, and exceptional reliability in visible, UV, and deep-UV laser systems.
GAMDAN crystals are widely deployed in SHG/THG frequency conversion, ultrafast laser systems, semiconductor and microelectronics processing, precision metrology, medical and biotech instrumentation, and advanced research platforms.
We work closely with laser designers, engineers, and research laboratories to provide tailored nonlinear crystal solutions that help transition proof-of-concept laser designs into commercial production.
What sets GAMDAN apart is our crystal-growth expertise. Our technical specialists work directly with customers throughout the design, proof-of-concept, testing, and production stages, ensuring each crystal is optimized for system-level performance and long-term manufacturability. We collaborate closely to refine crystal orientation, surface preparation, coating specifications, and environmental tolerances for each application.
GAMDAN Optics continues to
invest in next-generation deep-UV coating technologies and advanced nonlinear crystal research. Our mission is to provide the materials that drive innovation in high-performance laser systems—reliably, predictably, and with the quality expected from a U.S. manufacturer.
