Nd:YAB (Yttrium aluminum borate, YAl3(BO3)4, hereafter referred to as YAB), is a type of frequency-doubling crystal with applications to visible laser technology.
YAB crystals are grown by the flux method with a modified molybdate flux system. They may enable diode-pumped visible-light lasers through frequency doubling of the main infrared spectral lines.
