Growth of alpha-LAP crystals and investigation of their nonlinear-optical properties
Abstract
Large alpha-LAP single crystals with good optical quality have been grown, and their main nonlinear-optical characteritics have been measured. These crystals are found to exhibit high optical strength. Data are presented which indicate that the alpha-LAP crystals are superior to KDP crystals in achieving efficient second harmonic conversion of high-power laser radiation.
