Optical chalcogenide crystals for IR and THz bands: research and application
Modern photonic technologies require highly efficient nonlinear crystals to operate in the infrared (IR) and terahertz (THz) ranges. Our team is studying chalcogenide crystals, promising materials for laser optics, spectroscopy, and aerospace systems.


About us

High Technology Laboratory (HTL)
Advanced Crystals for Mid-IR, THz Systems & Semiconductor Technologies

An independent research and production facility led by Dmitry Badikov, Ph.D.

Welcome to HTL — a leading global developer and manufacturer of high‑purity chalcogenide and telluride single crystals. We deliver advanced materials that drive breakthrough civil technologies: mobile disaster medicine, deep IR gas sensing, 6G telecommunications, quantum computing, and environmental radiation safety.
Our team brings together more than 50 years of experience in the field of chalcogenide crystals. We are actively conducting research and development work to search for and study new crystalline materials.
We are open to new contacts and ready to take part in research and scientific projects.
We have developed a new crystal growth technology and are ready to begin commercial deliveries of large‑sized, high‑quality mid‑IR crystals, such as: BaGa₄Se₇, BaGa₄S₇, BaGa₂GeSe₆, BaGa₂GeS₆, Ba₂Ga₄GeS₁₆.
We are the only manufacturer of large‑size HgGa₂S₄ crystals. You can order them via the following link: HgGa₂S₄.
We also grow the following high‑optical‑quality materials: Ag₃AsS₃, Ag₃SbS₃, AgGaS₂, AgGaSe₂, AgGa₁₋ₓInₓS₂, AgGaₓIn₁₋ₓSe₂, AgGaGeS₄, AgGaGe₅Se₁₂, HgGa₂S₄, Hg₁₋ₓCdₓGa₂S₄, PbIn₆Te₁₀, PbGa₆Te₁₀, PbGa₂S₄, PbGa₂Se₄, Pb₂Ga₂S₅, Pb₂Ga₂Se₅, PbIn₂Se₄, Pb₁₋ₓCaₓIn₆Te₁₀, Tl₄HgI₆, PbGa₂GeSe₆, GaSe, and others.
We can conduct research on the growth of single crystals according to your research assignment, as well as synthesize the chalcogenide compound you need in any required quantity.
The website will be supplemented with information about new research directions of our scientific group and commercially available materials.

Sincerely,
Dmitry Badikov
