【摘要】 |
Nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals have been playing an increasingly important role in laser science and technology. The NLO crystals used in the middle infrared (mid-IR) region, compared with the NLO crystals in the other wavelength regions, are still not good enough for the application of high-energy laser. The main defect is that their laser damage thresholds (LDT) are low. Chinese scientists have made a lot of important contributions to the UV and visible NLO crystals. In the last decade, they also did a lot of work on the mid-IR NLO materials. The main purpose of these researches is to increase the LDT and simultaneously balance the other properties. This paper presents a brief summary of their research progress in this topic on three types of materials: chalcogenides, oxides, and halides. The emphasis is put on the design strategy and quality control of the crystals. |
