Problems solved by technology

However, traditional thinking shows that the electro-optic effect of the 4mm point group of the tetragonal system has no practical value: the linear electro-optic crystal of the 4mm point group of the tetragonal system, the crystal phase difference (T) and the electro-optic coefficient (γ 51 ) is proportional to the square of the product of the electric field strength (E) (the crystal length and the refractive index are constant), and the linear electro-optic coefficient is generally tens of Pm / V through analysis, even if the electric field strength E is large, the influence on the phase difference will be small

Abstract

The invention discloses an electro-optical Q-switch based on tetragonal phase potassium citrate (KTa<1-x>NbxO3, 0.4<x<0.7, KTN for short), and belongs to the field of laser devices. The electro-optical Q-switch consists of a polarizing film, a potassium niobate crystal, and a quarter-wave plate. The Nb component of the potassium citrate (KTN) crystal is between 0.4 and 0.7, and belongs to a tetragonal phase structure. A KTN crystal switch allows light to pass in the Z-direction of the optical axis of the crystal, and applies a driving voltage in the X / Y direction of the crystal, wherein the voltage is between 150 and 200V, and the repetition frequency is between 1 and 1000 Hz. The made KTN electro-optical laser is low in drive voltage, is good in universality, is wide in applicable bandwidth, is compact in structure, is low in cost, is good in stability, is practical and can be taken as a commodity.
