Problems solved by technology

However, most of these infrared crystals are grown by the Bridgman method. The whole growth process is carried out in a closed furnace, and the growth details cannot be observed. The growth parameters cannot be controlled in real time, and it is difficult to obtain large-sized single crystals with high optical quality.
[0005] Non-linear oxide crystals have a wide band gap and laser damage threshold, which makes up for the disadvantages of the above non-oxide crystals, but due to the high phonon frequency generated by oxygen atoms, it is difficult for them to completely cover the 3-5 μm atmospheric window

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a nonlinear optical device containing potassium sodium niobate single crystal, and belongs to the technical field of optoelectronic functional materials. Background technique [0002] With the development of modern laser technology, the laser wavelength that can be directly obtained by using laser crystals is limited, and it is impossible to achieve full-band laser output. Due to its unique nonlinear effects, nonlinear optical crystals, such as frequency doubling, sum frequency, difference frequency, Parametric amplification, etc., can effectively broaden the wavelength range of the laser. Using the nonlinear effect of crystals can be used to make a variety of nonlinear optical devices such as second harmonic generators, up-down frequency converters, and optical parametric oscillators. The electromagnetic radiation generated by the laser can be converted in frequency by nonlinear optical devices, so as to obtain more electroma...
