This invention relates to a series of
malonate borate
nonlinear optical crystals, their preparation methods, and applications. The general molecular formula of this series of compounds is AM[C3H2O4]B(OH)3(H2O). x Where A = K, Rb, Cs; M = K, Rb, Cs, x = 0, 1, molecular weight is 242.08–436.72, prepared by
room temperature solution method,
orthorhombic crystal system,
space group P 212121 (No. 19), with
cell parameters a = 6.6168(11) - 7.256(3) Å, b = 9.574(5) - 10.271(3) Å, c = 13.0172(12) - 13.984(5) Å. α =90, β =90, gamma =90, Z =4, V=851.3(4)-1042.2(7)Å 3 The series of
malonate borate
nonlinear optical crystals obtained by this method have advantages such as a wide transmission band, stable physicochemical properties, moderate mechanical
hardness, resistance to breakage, and ease of
cutting,
polishing, and storage. They can withstand 1064nm
infrared light incident on AM[C3H2O4]B(OH)3(H2O). x The
crystal can produce green frequency-doubled light with a
wavelength of 532nm, and the output intensity is about 0.5-1.2 times that of KDP under the same conditions.
