【Abstract】 Crack-free and transparent Ca4YO(B03)3 (YCOB) crystals with 25 mm diameter were grown by the vertical Bridgman method in <010> and <001> directions. The results of chemical etching indicate that there are no sub-boundaries or twins in the crystal, and the density of dislocations observed at top region of a crystal is less than 1800/cm2. The measured transmission spectrum shows that the crystal has wide transmission range with absorption edge at 200nm. The SHG of a Nd:YAG laser was performed for YCOB crystals in comparison with KDP crystal, the effective nonlinear coefficients (deff) of YCOB in type I phase matching directions of (θ,φ)=(66.3°, 143.5°) and (65.9°, 36.5°) were estimated to be 1.45pm/V and 0.91pm/V respectively. The bulk damage threshold was observed as 85GW/cm2 for single pulse of a Nd:YAG laser with 10ns pulse duration.更多还原
