The angular non-critical phase-matching (A-NCPM) second-harmonic-generation (SHG) properties of RE1xRE21−xCOB (RE1, RE2 = Y, Gd, La, Tm, Sm, and Nd) type mixed crystals including NCPM wavelength and conversion efficiency were detailedly investigated. Theoretical calculations manifest that the A-NCPM SHG scope of these crystals is 0.72~1.42 µm, and in experiments, the A-NCPM SHG waveband of 0.72~1.25 µm has been realized, by changing the ratio of the rare-earth elements RE1 and RE2 in RE1xRE21−xCOB crystals. Comparing to the temperature-dependent A-NCPM SHG of 0.95~1.34 µm in LiB3O5 (LBO) crystal, the composition-dependent A-NCPM SHG of 0.72~0.95 µm in RE1xRE21−xCOB type crystals is unique and has special significance for the frequency conversion of Ti:Sapphire lasers. Relationships between the birefringence and radius of rare-earth ion RE3+ in RE1xRE21−xCOB mixed crystals were discussed. Aiming for the A-NCPM SHG of 0.72~1.42 µm, we supply a clear, completed, and optimized solution on how to select the compositions of RE1xRE21−xCOB mixed crystals. Under focusing light beam conditions, high efficient A-NCPM SHG for both OPO and Ti:sapphire lasers were realized experimentally by using long Y- and Z-cut RE1xRE21−xCOB crystal samples.

AbstractOrientation patterned (OP)-GaAs crystals show promise for use in tunable coherent light sources in the infrared (IR) and terahertz (THz). These structures consist of an alternating array of [001]/[00-1] oriented domains grown by hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE). Material characteristics concerning the propagation losses, the crystal dimensions, and the grating size must be taken into account to implement optical devices for specific wavelength ranges and operating modes (CW or pulsed). The analysis of the main factors contributing to optical loss in the OP crystals is a crucial step toward their use in many promising applications. We present a cathodoluminescence study, where the main defects and their distribution over the OP-GaAs crystals are revealed, with special emphasis paid to the properties of the domain walls.

AbstractBarium titanate has recently been suggested as a possible candidate for use in periodically poled optical frequency conversion devices. We report refractive index measurements which are critical to periodically poled device designers and present quasi phase matching loci which can be used to design an optical parametric oscillator in periodically poled barium titanate
